In the event of a large-scale radiological emergency involving sources of external irradiation, methods are needed to identify which members of the population have been exposed and require priority care. To date, there are no operational methods for such sorting. Smartphone touch screen lenses retain traces of ionizing radiation through the formation of so-called “radiation-induced” defects.Measuring and quantifying these punctual defects, in particular by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, makes itpossible to estimate the dose deposited in the glass, and thus the exposure associated with irradiation. The thesis work proposed herefocuses in particular on the alkali-aluminosilicate glasses used in cell phone touch screens, which are currently the best candidates fordeveloping new measurement capabilities in the context of accidents involving large numbers of victims.

We will focus in particular on identifying point defects as a function of the glass model used in smartphones by simulating EPR spectra in order to optimize the proposed dosimetry method.
