In recent years, the MOSFET dosimeter has been widely used in various medical applications such as dose verification in radiation therapeutic and diagnostic applications. The MOSFET dosimeter is, however, mainly made of silicon and shows some energy dependence for low energy Photons. Therefore, the MOSFET dosimeter tends to overestimate the dose for low energy scattered photons in a phantom. This study determines the correction factors to compensate these dependences of the MOSFET dosimeter in ATOM phantom. For this, we first constructed a computational model of the ATOM phantom based on the 3D CT image data of the phantom. The voxel phantom was then implemented in a Monte Carlo simulation code and used to calculate the energy spectrum of the photon field at each of the MOSFET dosimeter locations in the phantom. Finally, the correction factors were calculated based on the energy spectrum of the photon field at the dosimeter locations and the pre-determined energy and directional dependence of the MOSFET dosimeter. Our result for $^{60}Co$ and $^{137}Cs$ photon fields shows that the correction factors are distributed within the range of 0.89 and 0.97 considering all the MOSFET dosimeter locations in the phantom.

In order to apply the TRS-398 dosimetry protocol developed by IAEA we directly calculated the quality correction factors for high energy photons. The calculations were peformed for seven commercial cylindrical chambers (A12, IC70, N23333, N30001, N30006, NE2571, PR06C/G). In comparison with quality correction factors given by TRS-398 our results were in good agreement within ${\pm}0.3%$ (maximum ${\pm}0.3%$) for all chambers and photon qualities.

Highly-Birefringent Photonic Crystal Fiber (Hi-Bi PCF) is composed of a single material, silica, so that its temperature sensitivity is extremely low. Therefore, we propose afiber based Sagnac interferometer for measurement of strain and curvature independent of temperature variation. The sensitivities of strain and curvature (both axes) are measured to be $1.41\;pm/{\mu}{\varepsilon}$ and $0.93nm/m^{-1}$(slow axis Y), $-1.6\;nm/m^{-1}$(fast axis X), respectively.

We fabricate highly birefringent photonic crystal fiber with new structure using a stack and draw method. Fabricated fiber has two big air holes, one at each side of the outside air cladding region, leading to core ellipticity during the drawing process. Birefringence of the fabricated Hi-Bi PCF is measured to be $2.29{\times}10^{-4}$ (at 1550 nm).
