Post-irradiation treatment

MetaHoelement complexes may be useful for the post-irradiation treatment of radiation injury, based on the observation that several of these compounds accelerate recovery of, among other things, lympho/hemopoiesis. Preirradiation Mn2(0)(DIPS)g increases the survival of y-irradiated mice (103). Treatment of mice that have been exposed to an LD q q dose of y-rays plus Mn2(0)(DIPS)g either 1 or 3 h after irradiation also increases survival, which supports the hypothesis that this compound is an effective radiorecovery agent (105). Again, this increase in survival may result from the resynthesis of radiation-depleted Mn-dependent enzymes that facHitate the recovery of immunocompetence and tissue repair, as reported for Cu(II)2(DIPS)4.

Irradiation often produces changes in the visible or UV absorption spectra of polymers. These changes depend, in most cases, on the temperature of irradiation, post-irradiation treatment and the presence of additives. The new absorption bands are, in most cases, due to the formation of conjugated double bonds or trapped ions and radicals. The discolouration of polymer samples has sometimes been used in dosimetry.

One major problem with femtosecond laser processed micro-optical devices is the large power dissipation due to Rayleigh scatterings fi om the particle-like fine structures, which is difficult to control in the fabrication process because of an intense laser-matter interaction at the femtosecond time scale. Suitable post-irradiation treatments should be found to improve performance of devices [31]. 

Each type of dosimeter requires a specific procedure to assure accurate and reproducible results, such as post-irradiation heat treatment. Others need to be stabilized for a certain time (up to 24 hours with some) before readings of absorbance are taken.7 9 The absorbance reading can be done by conventional spectrophotometry or other more involved methods. 

In subsequent experiments, Biersack, et al. (29) used the boron (n,alpha) reaction to show the effect of pre- and post-irradiation damage on boron implantation profiles. By post-irradiating a boron implant in silicon with 200 keV H2, a migration of the boron to the Induced damage sites was observed. In the same paper, diffusion and trapping of lithium ions in niobium were reported. Using the lithium (n,alpha) reaction, they mapped irradiation Induced crystal defects through a depth of several micrometers with respect to several sample treatment conditions. 

In this section, we introduce post-synthetic treatments that enable further modification of the physical properties such as the structural, electrical, and optical properties of the as-prepared light-emitting polymer nanostructures. Of the various methods of controlling the intrinsic characteristics of nanostructures, we discuss the electrochemical doping and dedoping process using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and unfocused electron (E)-beam irradiation. Hydrothermal treatment of undoped NPs is presented, which involves application of external pressure and heat to NPs. Finally, we describe hybridization with nanoscale... 

There are several configurations of this technique that include instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) where the sample is measured without any chemical treatment and radiochemical NAA (RNAA) where post-irradiation separation is done.
