Abstract

PbS nanodots embedded in a zirconium oxide nanofilm were explored as possible ultraviolet (UV) sensors for nanodosimetry purposes. The nanodots were excited by ultraviolet photons to get emission of weak electrons. The emitted charge correlated to UV exposure indicates that PbS nanodots have potential for use as UV sensors for nanodosimetry.
