✦ Synopsis

A simple calorimeter with a totally-absorbing graphite body was designed and tested at a 400-keV electron accelerator.

For a given conveyor speed and beam current, the calorimetric measurements are expressed as a quantity F (J 'cm-')-the absorbed energy per unit surface area-which is found to be independent of the calorimetric body size and in accordance with the measurements of absorbed dose by calibrated radiochromic film dosimeters. The use of the calorimeter for the initial calibration of the energy deposition by low-energy accelerator beams and routine calibration of thin-film dosimeters are demonstrated.

Oxygen interaction of CdS-based gas sens
Oxygen interaction of CdS-based gas sensors with different stoichiometric compositions was studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and thermal-desorption mass spectroscopy observations combined with conductivity measurements. Three different types of film with different atomic ratios of Cd/S were used in the study of oxygen chemisorption in a low-temperature range between 300 and 570 K. Spray pyrolysis was used for the deposition of the films on glass substrates; XPS and energy dispersive spectroscopy of X-ray together with atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy were used for the characterization of the composition and structure of the films. It was possible to distinguish different temperature ranges for the thermal desorption of the different adsorbed oxygen species. A comparison of the data from XPS and mass-spectroscopy observations with conductance measurements allows to conclude that metallic surface atoms are responsible for different interactions of oxygen species with CdS surfaces.
