A series of experiments was performed to study the effect of types of etchant, concentration of etchant, bulk-etching rate and track diameter distribution in Glass detector.
Californium-252(cf-252) was used as a source for Spontaneous Fission Fragments(S.F.F)
From the measured bulk-etching rates as different temperatures, the activation energy for bulk-etching has been obtained. The activation energy, Q, was found to be a value of 0.31 eV for Glass detector.
A decrease in the value of V_B with an increase in fractional etching time in Glass showed the presence of EPL effect. The more the decrease in V_B, the greater was the EPL effect.
