Double response ionizing radiation detector and measuring method using the same
- Kryptis: Optoelektronika
This invention relates to a method and equipment for the measurements of fluxes and high cumulative doses collected under ionizing irradiations by gamma rays, leptons and hadrons. The proposed sensor comprises structure of homogenous as well as layered, differently doped and semi-insulating wide band-gap semiconductor materials containing both the electrical (ohmic/blocking, Schottky and junction type) and optical fiber probes. The methods for synchronous measurement of optical and electrical signals, the measurement regimes and procedures for processing of signals as well as the measurement data are proposed in order to measure the radiation flux, to estimate the collected fluence (dose) and to track the paths of particle/radiation beams during and after irradiations.
