Abstract

The gamma radiation protection parameter for the TeO2-LINbO3-BaF2-La2O3 network modified by Nb2O5/TiO2 in the present work. The following compounds have been examined: [77.53TeO2-7.31LiNbO3-4.16Nb2O5-10% BaF2-1.0La2O3, sample code TSH1), [71.69TeO2-7.31LiNbO3-10BaF2-1.0La2O3, sample TSH2] and [76.69TeO2-7.31LiNbO3- 5TiO2-10BaF2-1% La2O3 and sample code TSH3]. Within this, we specify the criteria for shielding such as mass attenuation coefficients (μm/), effective atomic numbers (Zeff), electron density (Ne), half-value layers (HVL), mean free path (MFP). The TSH3 glasses have a greater gamma-ray safety performance because of a higher value of HVL, (μm/), and MFP. The observed glasses display good gamma ray safety compared to used standard radiation-shielding materials, namely RS-360, and RS-520. Finally, the structure of these glasses investigates at wavenumber in the range 50 to 1200 cm-1 by using Raman spectra.
