This work examined the beta irradiation and characterization of lead oxide nanoparticles samples that were prepared via pulsed laser deposition. The lead oxide nanoparticles samples were irradiated by beta-ray. Strontium 90 radioisotope was used as beta irradiation for different time periods (Days 1, 3, 4, and 5). The morphologies of lead oxide nanoparticles films were characterized with and without beta irradiation through the use of scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). According to the findings, beta radiation impacted lead oxide nanoparticles samples' morphological properties. The details of experimental setups, sample preparation procedures, and data analysis, are explicated.
