Plastic scintillator neutron detector.
Plastic scintillator neutron detector.
Plastic scintillator neutron detector Since neutron fields are typically present with gamma-ray, the separation technique is necessary such as pulse-shape discrimination (PSD) for neutron detection. Each layer consists of a LiF: ZnS(Ag) scintillator coupled with a transparent Abstract New neutron scintillation detectors based on silicon photomultipliers and organic-glass light guides are described. ). To achieve n-γ discrimination, we exploit the difference in the ranges of the secondary charged particles produced by the interactions of Then, in the second assembly, exploiting the flexibility of the ZnS:Ag/LiBO-based scintillator, the curved surface of the plastic scintillator was wrapped with the thermal neutron detector (see Abstract: This work presents results on a neutron-sensitive scintillating detector fabricated by additive manufacturing. the experimental plastic scintillator EJ-299-34 with neutron-gamma pulse-shape discrimination properties. 8×10 4 neutrons/s) placed at 17 cm from the front faces of the EJ-301 and the EJ-299-33 detector assembly. As can be seen from the figure, the The neutron detector array consists of 16 plastic scintillator bars (equivalent to Bicron BC-408 and procured from SCIONIX, Holland) of square cross-section [4].
