The objective of the research was to explore potential application of diamond-like carbon (DLC) nanofilms for nanodosimetry of ionizing radiation (IR) by studying the changes of photoelectron emission (PE) from the nanofilms under influence of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The results show that increment of charge released by photoelectrons from DLC nanofilms correlates to time of UV exposure. Metal doped and non-doped DLC nanofilms react differently to the UV irradiation.
