  • Publication number: 20230016402
    Abstract: Fast neutron detectors using nuclear reactions within semiconductor material, glass, or other material. Some versions used doped versions of the materials. Some versions use dopants selected from Ba, As, Br, C, Ce, Cl, Co, Cu, F, Ga, Ge, In, Cd, Te, Al, P, K, La, Mo, Nd, O, Os, Pr, S, Se, Si, Sn, Sr, Ti, TI, V, Zn, and Zr. Some versions have filters or coatings deposited on windows into the detector. Coatings are selected from titanium oxide, zinc oxide, tin oxide, copper indium gadolinium selenide, cadmium telluride, cadmium tin oxide, perovskite photovoltaic, Si, GaAs, AIP, Ge.
