Feasibility studies of using thin entrance window photodiodes for clinical electron beam dosimetry
The response of the commercial XRA-24 PIN photodiode (5.76 mm2 active area) for clinical electron beam dosimetry covering the range of 8-12 MeV was investigated. Within this energy range, the charge generated in the diode’s sensitive volume is linearly dependent on the absorbed dose up to 320 cGy. ...
