Özet
In this study, we synthesized binary germanate glasses with compositions of GeO2 – Bi2O3, GeO2 – PbF2, and GeO2 – V2O5. The traditional melt-quenching method was used for glass synthesis. The radiation shielding properties of the synthesized samples were calculated theoretically and measured experimentally as well. A narrow-beam transmission geometry, which uses a NaI(Tl) detector, was employed to measure linear attenuation coefficient, mass attenuation coefficient, half-value layer, and effective atomic number values of the glasses at gamma-ray energies of 662, 1173, and 1332 keV and, 137Cs, and 60Co radioactive point sources were used to produce gamma-ray photons of these energies. Additionally, all the above parameters were also calculated theoretically using the WinXCOM software in the 0.015-15 MeV energy range to confirm the accuracy of the measurements. A good agreement …
