A setup and analytical dose calculation model for solid-state sample irradiation using a microtron type e-beam accelerator

Purpose This paper presents the development and implementation of a microtron-based setup for solid-state sample irradiation.
Methods The fabrication of microtron components that extract 6 MeV electrons is detailed, enabling detailed studies of energy-dependent radiation effects.
Results Experimental findings have led to a precise mapping of accelerated electron flux density, and subsequently, the establishment of uniform irradiation zones and real-time dose absorption control. Titanium carbide samples were irradiated using the bremsstrahlung of electrons from the microtron.
Conclusion Calculations of absorbed doses from an extended bremsstrahlung source were conducted, considering key factors such as sample geometry and physical properties.
