Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an ionization chamber with a built-in temperature sensor, which is especially adapted for devices, such as X-ray units, gamma irradiators and linear accelerators, whichever is used for performing radiation dose output measurement accordingly. In an embodiment, the ionization chamber comprises: a cavity, an inner electrode, a chamber wall, an outer electrode, a guard electrode and a calibrated temperature sensor for detecting real-time temperature inside the cavity of ionization chamber to be used in the correction process of radiation dose measurement signals. With the aforesaid device, not only the accuracy of measurement can be improved effectively, but also the time consumed in a radiation dose measurement period can be reduced greatly since it will no longer bear the disadvantage that the radiation dose measurement has to wait until the temperatures inside and outside the cavity of ionization chamber had reached a thermal equilibrium before the measurement.

Abstract: An ionization chamber includes a chamber, two outer electrode plates and a center electrode plate. The center electrode plate is disposed at the center of the chamber, and signals produced in the chamber can be collected completely by the center electrode plate to avoid signal losses and improve the accuracy of the test result of the ionization chamber. The center electrode plate also can maintain a constant internal volume of the chamber and prevent a change of effective volume within the chamber due to a change of electric field and enhance the stability of the test result of the ionization chamber. A guard electrode is wrapped by an insulation pin of the electrode and the outer insulation ring to form an insulation shield that can greatly reduce current leakage of the protection electrode and improve the accuracy of the test result of the ionization chamber.
