Claim 16:
17. A method of measuring gamma radiation dose comprising:
providing a sample to be treated with radiation;
providing a sensor including:
a substrate;
an interdigitated electrode comprising a first electrode with a plurality of digits and a second electrode with a plurality of digits, wherein the interdigitated electrode is disposed on the substrate; and
a conductive polymeric film comprising a blend of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), wherein the film is disposed on and between said first and second electrodes of said interdigitated electrode;

disposing the sensor within a predetermined proximity to the sample;
applying radiation to the sample; and
monitoring a dose range of the radiation applied to the sample with the sensor.
