摘要
The depth-dependent bulk etch rate has been examined for the gamma-irradiated CR-39 at doses ranging from 20 to 100 kGy. The thickness of the damaged region in gamma-irradiated CR-39 plastics, in which the bulk etch rate was significantly enhanced, was found to be limited in the thin layer near the surface and decreases with increasing the dose-rate, while it barely depend on the total dose. This indicates that it is possible to apply CR-39 plastics as high dose gamma-dosimeter by assessing both the bulk etch rate in the damaged region and its thickness in principle.
