Institute of Experimental and Applied Physics Czech Technical University in Prague IEAP – CTU Prague 3 BrightnEES Kick-off meeting, Lund 25/9/2015Frantisek Krejci Principle: Semiconductor pixel detector can barely detect slow neutrons directly.  Conversion of thermal neutrons to detectable radiation in a suitable material is needed. Placement of a converter: on the sensor surface (coated detector), inside of the sensor volume (stuffed detector), converter is a component of the sensing material. Converter materials:Cross section 6 Li: 6 Li + n   (2.05 MeV) + 3 H (2.72 MeV)940 barns 10 B: 10 B + n   (1.47 MeV) + 7 Li (0.84 MeV) +  (0.48MeV)(93.7%) 10 B + n   (1.78 MeV) + 7 Li (1.01 MeV) (6.3%)3 840 barns 113 Cd: 113 Cd + n  114 Cd +  (0.56MeV) + conversion electrons barns 155 Gd: 155 Gd + n  156 Gd +  (0.09, 0.20, 0.30 MeV) + conversion electrons 157 Gd: 157 Gd + n  158 Gd +  (0.08, 0.18, 0.28 MeV) + conversion electrons~ barns Adaptation of the pixel device for slow neutron detection Neutron beam back side contact grid e n

Institute of Experimental and Applied Physics Czech Technical University in Prague IEAP – CTU Prague 8 BrightnEES Kick-off meeting, Lund 25/9/2015Frantisek Krejci Conclusions  Hybrid semiconductor pixel detectors can be very successfully adapted for neutron detection  The spatial resolution can be very high (microns)  The event-by-event (tracking) technique analyzing collected charge shape is powerful technique  Very high background suppression – electrons (e.g. from gamma scattering) have different tracks  Technology development leading to further spatial resolution and sensitivity improvement is in progress (novel sensor materials such as B 4 C, 3-D sensors, …)
