Abstract A new multi-purpose polycarbonate track detector (PCTD)/activated-carbon-fabric (ACF) radon monitor has been recently developed in our laboratory, a basic design of which was used for parametric studies. One 500 μm thick PCTD (3 cm x 3 cm) is used bare for detecting alphas from radon and progeny directly from air and another PCTD (3 cm x 3 cm) covered by an ACF layer (PCTD/ACF) to enhance the PCTD response by radon adsorption on its carbon active sites. The PCTDs were processed by 50 Hz−2 kV electrochemical etching method. The ACF/PCTD sensitivity was enhanced in respect to the PCTD/bare with an amplification factor (AF) defined as ratio of track density on PCTD under ACF to that of PCTD bare. Many ACF-related parameters studied affect the PCTD/ACF response among them thermal annealing of ACF, ACF thickness and distance of ACF layer to the PCTD are reported and discussed in this paper.

In this study fifty (50) of soil samples of AL-Nada district-Najaf Governorate –Iraq have been collected randomly and studied using  solid state nuclear track detectors (CR-39) to determined 226Ra through counting the number of radon tracks by using CR-39 plastic nuclear track detector ,a long- term measurement technique has been considered using special tube of mean (2.5cm) diameter .The detector was placed at (5cm) height and irradiated for 90 days. The chemical etching performed by using (NaOH) solution of 6.25 normality at etching temperature (70C°)for etching period of (7 hrs  ).Concentration of radon 222Rn has ranged from (171.237±0.0062) Bq/m3 to (31.982±0.0027) Bq/m3with  average value  (99.222±0.2476) Bq/m3 while the specific activityof radon has been ranged from (0.471±1.794) Bq/kg to (0.090±7.682) Bq/kg with average value (0.277 1.320)Bq/kgThe results were found to be comparable or lower than similar global reporting data. Accordingly, this area of soil can be considered to have normal levels of natural background radiation.

This article reports on photovoltaic performance and long-term stability of hybrid solar cells based on ZnO/TiOPc with DH-α6T as an electron blocking layer. When the thermal annealing temperature (TA) was increased from 120 °C to 180 °C, these absorption spectra of TiOPc thin films reveal the gradual formation of the crystalline α-phase, as evidenced by the development of a red-shifted absorption band, peaking 845 nm, and the corresponding reduction of the 720 nm amorphous phase peak. Device performance of hybrid solar cells could be improved and open-circuit voltage (VOC), short-circuit current (ISC) and power conversion efficiency (η) were enhanced by thermal annealing, which originated from amorphous TiOPc films transformed into crystalline α-TiOPc films with a wider red and near-IR absorption band. At TA= 150 °C, the device achieved the highest performance with VOC, ISCand η of 0.53 V, 1.71 mA/cm2, and 0.29 %, respectively. Furthermore, the hybrid device showed long-term stability that this device maintained over 55 % of its initial η after 300 days aging at room temperature.
