A Novel, Rapid Response Renewable Biopolymer Neutron and Gamma Radiation Solid-State Detector for Dosimetry and Nuclear Reactor Flux-Power Mapping
A novel solid-state neutron and gamma radiation monitor-dosimeter based on biopolymer polylactic acid (PLA) is presented. The resulting detector (PLAD) technology takes advantage of property changes of the renewable PLA resin when subject to ionizing nuclear radiation. A simple yet rapid and accurat...
