研究目的
To optimize the photon energy response (PER) of Si-PIN photodetectors used in electronic personal dosimeters (EPDs) for accurate personal dose equivalent measurements under different photon energy conditions.
研究成果
The few-channel spectroscopy dose method effectively optimizes the PER of Si-PIN photodetectors within ±14% and ±2% under two and three energy intervals, respectively, meeting IEC 61526:2010 requirements. This method offers low power consumption, cost, and accurate measurement, making it suitable for EPD design.
研究不足
The study focuses on PER optimization under specific conditions (two and three energy intervals) and does not extensively cover other technical parameters like angular response, inherent error, and high nonlinear dose rate. Future work includes addressing these parameters and extending the energy range below 48 keV.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
A 1024-channel spectrometry system using a Si-PIN photodetector was developed for full-spectrum measurement in reference radiation fields. The few-channel spectroscopy dose method was employed to correct PER.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The system measured spectra in reference radiation fields established using a mid-energy X-ray machine and isotopes (137Cs and 60Co), covering an energy range from 48 keV to 1.25 MeV.
3:25 MeV.
List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
3. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials: Si-PIN photodetector (model BPW 34), Al metal filter material, charge-sensitive preamplifier, pole-zero cancellation circuit, active filter using operational amplifiers, high-speed ADC, FPGA, and MCU USB module.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The detector module was placed in front of a water phantom, and spectra were measured under various energy conditions. The enumeration algorithm was used to find optimal PER under few-channel conditions.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The MATLAB software was used to implement the enumeration algorithm for calculating counts-to-dose conversion factors and optimal PER.
