A portable system has been developed for the detection of neutrons. The sensing element is a silicon radiation detector with a Boron-based converter material that detects neutrons with the 10B(n, α)7 Li reaction. The detector response has been simulated with the MCNPX Monte-Carlo software and the detector geometry has been optimized. A portable readout electronics has been built to operate the detector...
Most neutron detectors use some type of conversion material to convert the incident neutrons into secondary charged particles, which can be detected inside the detector bulk afterwards. In these reactions, charged particles and recoil nuclei are emitted, with energies high enough to be distinguished from the gamma ray background. In this way, semiconductor detectors incorporating a layer of a neutron...
Most neutron detectors use some type of conversion material to convert the incident neutron into secondary charged particles, which can then be detected inside the detector bulk afterward. In this way, semiconductor detectors incorporating neutron reactive material on top of a diode substrate can be used as a neutron detector. These reactions emit charged particles and recoil nucleus with energies...
