Lithium tetraborate has attracted much attention as a potential radiation-proof material for an optical device. it is used as a tissue-equivalent material for radiation dosimetry. In the present investigation, we report the preparation of lithium tetraborate (LTB) nanoparticles by a solid -state method with high energy ball-milling along with different parameter. Different milling parameter was optimized to acquire essential particle sizes. The crystalline size obtained from XRD data is found within the range of 31-35 nm. The morphological study was carried out using Scanning electron microscope. The structural properties of Lithium tetraborate was studied by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy.
