This passive detector is based on radiationinduced, optically active nano-scale defects. In this work, the transient-state optical properties of the blue and orange RPL were investigated using a time-resolved spectrum technique for 137Cs and 60Co gamma-ray-irradiated Ag-activated phosphate glass. Specifically, the blue RPL intensity with a decay time of 5 ns as a function of the depth at the vicinity of the surface was systematically examined to clarify an accurate dose distribution within the glass. Moreover, a feasibility study into the use of an RPL Ag-activated phosphate glass detector for fluorescent nuclear track imaging was demonstrated using a confocal fluorescence image microscope for the first time. © 2016 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.}, title = {A three-dimensional imaging detector based on nano-scale silver-related defects in X- and gamma-ray-irradiated glasses}, volume = {55}, year = {2016} }
