摘要：
The effects of UVC exposure on the track etch rate Vt and the detector sensitivity V of CR-39 SSNTDs were investigated through the diameters and depths of alpha-particle tracks. Both the bulk etch rate V-b and V-t increased but V decreased. The track diameters and depths were used to derive a V function for CR-39 detectors with and without UV irradiation.
