Disclosed is a method of producing Tc-99m by using nuclear resonance fluorescence. More specifically, and a method of preparing Tc-99m by using nuclear resonance fluorescence includes irradiating a ground-state Tc-99 nucleus with a photon beam, thereby causing a nuclear transmutation to proceed such that the nucleus excited to high energy and then undergoes a transition to Tc-99m.

Disclosed is an apparatus for extracting multiple laser Compton scattering ('LCS') photon beams using a laser Compton scattering reaction, the apparatus including: a linear accelerator for accelerating an electron beam; and an LCS gamma ray generation module including an LCS gamma ray generator for irradiating a target with an LCS gamma ray generated by emitting laser light to an electron beam released from the linear accelerator and a bending magnet for adjusting a direction of the electron beam passed through the LCS gamma ray generator, wherein at least two LCS gamma ray generation modules are sequentially arranged to form a closed loop together with the linear accelerator.

Disclosed is a nuclear fuel rod including at least one or more fuel pellets, a cladding tube surrounding the fuel pellets, and burnable absorber inside the cladding tube. The burnable absorber comprises a burnable absorber material and a cladding material surrounding the burnable absorber material. The burnable absorber has a disk shape, and the cladding material is an alloy comprising zirconium.
