There has been such a problem that radiation detecting elements using semiconductor elements have a low radiation detection efficiency, since the radiation detecting elements easily transmit radiation, even though the radiation detecting elements have merits, such as small dimensions and light weight. Disclosed are a radiation detecting element and a radiation detecting device, wherein a film formed of a metal, such as tungsten, is formed on the radiation incident surface of the radiation detecting element, and the incident energy of the radiation is attenuated. The efficiency of generating carriers by way of radiation incidence is improved by attenuating the incident energy, the thickness of the metal film is optimized, and the radiation detection efficiency is improved.
摘要:
Three-dimensional boron particle loaded thermal neutron detectors utilize neutron sensitive conversion materials in the form of nano-powders and micro-sized particles, as opposed to thin films, suspensions, paraffin, etc. More specifically, methods to infiltrate, intersperse and embed the neutron nano-powders to form two-dimensional and/or three-dimensional charge sensitive platforms are specified. The use of nano-powders enables conformal contact with the entire charge-collecting structure regardless of its shape or configuration.
