1. A system comprising:

  • a nano-scintillator exhibiting a linear or near linear luminescent emission response to stimulating electromagnetic radiation of wavelengths less than 100 nm;

    a light sensor configured to sense light emitted from the nano-scintillator; and

    a processor comprising;

    a data collection module configured to receive calibration data from the light sensor during a calibration mode, and generate a linear response equation from the calibration data; and

    a dose or energy determination module configured to convert response information received from the light sensor during normal operation into radiation information using the linear response equation.
