Design and calibration of a depth-of-interaction detector for neutrons and gamma rays by ZHAO Dong, LIANG Xuwen, ZHANG Ronghua, HEI Daqian, JIA Wenbao, SHAN Qing, LING Yongsheng

“…Of these incidents, 278 are associated with trafficking or malicious use of materials such as highly enriched uranium, plutonium, and plutonium-beryllium neutron sources. Therefore, developing depth-of-interaction detector for neutrons and gamma rays is important for effective control of nuclear and radiation materials at national and international cross points such as borders, ports, and airports.PurposeThis study aims to design a depth-of-interaction detector for neutrons and gamma rays and characterize its performance.MethodsHereby, an EJ276 plastic scintillator (Φ3 cm× 15 cm) coupled with two silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) in both sides was designed as a depth-of-interaction detector for neutrons and gamma rays. …”
