Dose coefficients for use with physical field quantities - fluence and, for photons, air kerma - are given for various particle types over a broad energy range. For the skin dosimetry, several changes are of particular interest. Specifically, the use of absorbed dose instead of dose equivalent has been selected as the operational quantity since deterministic effects are of primary interest in the skin. In addition, newly recommended phantoms are specified for computing the operational dose coefficients. The report also addresses computational approaches such as tally volumes, depths, source areas, and rotational angles. In this work, dose coefficients calculated for the local skin in support of the ICRU report are presented. Energy-dependent dose coefficients wereRP by IOP Publishing Limited.

The anodization at three different temperatures 20C, 280C and 400C followed by impregnation of Al is used for their preparation. The analyses of structure, chemical composition and morphology respectively by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), high resolution transmission microscopy, Rutherford back scattering and field emission scanning electron microscopy confirm the formation of the hybrid structure.This structure exhibits the highest photodegradation rate with TONT based catalysts till date for MB blue, by enhancing the electron -hole
