摘要

The impact of gamma irradiation on the optical response and structural integrity of erythrosine B (EB) thin films made by spin coating on glass and quartz substrates systematically investigated in this work. As confirmed by FTIR analysis, the results clearly show that gamma irradiation is a useful technique for modifying the optical characteristics of EB films without sacrificing their molecular structure.The optical band gap, refractive index, optical dispersion, dielectric constants, optical conductivity, and energy loss functions are all significantly and consistently altered by radiation, which indicates the suitability of EB as a radiation - sensitive optical material. These changes are ascribed to changes in defect density and electronic polarizability. The significant radiation sensitivity of EB films is confirmed by the observed increase in refractive index, as well as the regulated changes in dispersion and dielectric properties. These results demonstrate the potential of EB thin films for radiation-responsive photonic and optoelectronic applications.
