  • A new neutron-gamma density measurement method using mass attenuation coefficient function

    分类: 核科学技术 >> 核探测技术与核电子学 提交时间: 2025-06-12

    摘要: While traditional gamma-gamma density (GGD) logging technology is widely utilized, its potential environmental risks have prompted the development of more environmentally friendly neutron-gamma density (NGD) logging technology. However, NGD measurements are influenced by both neutron and gamma radiation. In the logging environment, variations in formation composition indicate different elemental compositions, which affect neutron-gamma reaction cross-sections and gamma generation. Compared to traditional gamma sources such as Cs-137, these changes can significantly impact the generation and transport of neutron-induced inelastic gamma rays, posing challenges for accurate measurements. To address this, a novel method is proposed, the method incorporates the mass attenuation coefficient function to account for the effects of various lithologies and pore contents on gamma-ray attenuation and therefore can achieve more accurate density measurements by clarifying the transport processes of inelastic gamma rays with varying energy and spatial distributions in varied logging environments. The method avoids the complex correction of the neutron transport and is verified through Monte Carlo simulations for its applicability across various lithologies and pore contents. showing thatthe absolute density errors are less than 0.02 g/cm3 in clean formations and demonstrating good accuracy. The research not only clarifies the NGD mechanism but also provides theoretical guidance for the application of NGD logging methods. Further research will be conducted regarding extreme environmental conditions and tool calibration.

  • Prototype of a deep-sea in-situ neutron activation spectrometer for polymetallic nodule and crust exploration

    分类: 核科学技术 >> 核探测技术与核电子学 提交时间: 2025-04-06

    摘要: In-situ exploration of deep-sea seabed resources is a valuable research direction. Neutron activation-based in-situ exploration methods for seabed polymetallic nodules or crust resources are theoretically feasible because of the high content and high neutron capture cross-section of manganese in these nodules or crusts. However, to date, only a few relevant studies have been conducted. In this study, a prototype Deep-sea In-situ Neutron Activation Spectrometer (DINAS) was designed for resource exploration. Through an analysis of the principles of the spectrometer combined with Monte Carlo simulations of the physical principles and finite element simulations of deep-sea pressure, the structure and fundamental components of the spectrometer were determined. The inner core of the spectrometer comprised three components: a compact neutron generator for neutron production, gamma-ray detectors, and an electronics system. The gamma-ray detector array of the spectrometer consisted of LaBr3 and BGO scintillation crystals coupled with silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) arrays. The electronics system was divided into two modules to implement the SiPM readout and digital signal analysis along the modular design lines. The experimental activation of neutron beamlines at the China Spallation Neutron Source demonstrated the capability of the spectrometer detectors to detect activated gamma rays and showed that the spectrometer achieved an energy resolution of 2.8 % at 847 keV for the LaBr3 detector and 6.7 % at 2.113 MeV for the BGO detector. The laboratory model experiment tested the functionality of the spectrometer prototype, whereas the Geant4 simulation verified the reliability of the Monte Carlo method. The method and prototype proposed in this study proved feasible for the in-situ detection of polymetallic nodules or crusts in deep-sea environments

  • Achieving detector-grade CdTe(Cl) single crystals through vapor-pressure-controlled vertical gradient freeze growth

    分类: 核科学技术 >> 核探测技术与核电子学 提交时间: 2025-02-25

    摘要: Cadmium telluride (CdTe), which has a high average atomic number and a unique band structure, is a leadingmaterial for room-temperature X/γ-ray detectors. Resistivity and mobility are the two most importantproperties of detector-grade CdTe single crystals. However, despite decades of research, the fabrication ofhigh-resistivity and high-mobility CdTe single crystals faces persistent challenges, primarily because the stoichiometriccomposition cannot be well controlled owing to the high volatility of Cd under high-temperatureconditions. This volatility introduces Te inclusions and cadmium vacancies (VCd) into the as-grown CdTe ingot,which significantly degrades the device performance. In this study, we successfully obtained detector-gradeCdTe single crystals by simultaneously employing a Cd reservoir and chlorine (Cl) dopants via a vertical gradientfreeze (VGF) method. By installing a Cd reservoir, we can maintain the Cd pressure under the crystalgrowth conditions, thereby preventing the accumulation of Te in the CdTe ingot. Additionally, the existenceof the Cl dopant helps improve the CdTe resistivity by minimizing VCd density through the formation of anacceptor complex (ClTe-VCd)−1. The crystalline quality of the obtained CdTe(Cl) was evidenced by a reductionin large Te inclusions, high optical transmission (60%), and a sharp absorption edge (1.456 eV). Thepresence of substitutional Cl dopants, known as Cl+ Te, simultaneously supports the record high resistivity of1.5 × 1010 Ω · c meter and remarkable electron mobility of 1075±88 cm2 V−1 s−1 simultaneously, has beenconfirmed by photoluminescence spectroscopy. Moreover, using our crystals, we fabricated a planar detectorwith μτe of (1.11 ± 0.04) × 10−4 cm2/V, which performed with a decent radiation-detection feature. Thisstudy demonstrates that the vapor-pressure-controlled VGF method is a viable technical route for fabricatingdetector-grade CdTe crystals.

    分类: 核科学技术 >> 核探测技术与核电子学 提交时间: 2025-02-03

    摘要: Neutron capture event imaging, as a novel imaging technique, has the potential to substantially enhance theresolution of the existing imaging system. This study provides a measurement method for neutron capture eventdistribution and multiple reconstruction methods for super-resolution imaging. This technology can reduce thepoint spread function of the imaging system through single neutron detection and event reconstruction, therebysignificantly improving the imaging resolution. In the experiment, a single neutron detection experiment wasconducted using the highly practical and efficient 6LiF – ZnS scintillation screen, relying on the cold neutronimaging device on the research reactor. In milliseconds of exposure time, a large number of weak light clustersand their distribution inside the scintillation screen were recorded frame by frame, completing single neutrondetection. In the calculation, several reconstruction algorithms were proposed. The location of the neutron cap#2;ture event was calculated by the several processing methods such as noise removal, filtering, spot segmentation,contour analysis, and local positioning. The proposed algorithm achieves higher imaging resolution and fasterreconstruction speed. Combining single neutron detection experiments and reconstruction calculations, singleneutron super-resolution imaging was finally achieved. The results show that the resolution of the 100 µm thick6LiF – ZnS scintillation screen can be improved from 125 microns to 40 microns. It indicates that the proposedsingle-neutron detection and calculation method is an effective technical route, which can significantly improvethe imaging resolution.

    摘要: The semi-cylindrical Time Projection Chamber (scTPC) is designed to measure the angular distribution of the cross section of the intermediate-energy (3He,t) charge exchange reaction in inverse kinematics. The scTPC prototype has been constructed, consisting of a cathode, a field cage, a drift region, an amplification structure based on multi-layer thick gas electron multiplier (THGEM), and a readout plane with 886 zigzag-shaped pads. The gain uniformity of the THGEM and the drift velocity of electrons were calibrated. Then the track recognition based on the Hough transform was developed to reconstruct cosmic ray tracks and extract their position resolution. The position resolution of the secondary particle tracks from collisions between the heavy-ion beam and 3He target was also reported, with an x-resolution of 0.71 mm and a z-resolution of 0.73 mm. The scTPC is able to achieve sufficient energy resolution and spatial resolution to support the charge exchange reaction experiments in inverse kinematics.

  • Simulation and experimental comparison of the performance of four-corner-readout plastic scintillator muon-detector system

    分类: 核科学技术 >> 核探测技术与核电子学 提交时间: 2024-07-04

    摘要: Cosmic-ray muons are highly penetrating background-radiation particles found in natural environments. In this study, we develop and test a plastic scintillator muon detector based on machine-learning algorithms. The detector underwent muon position-resolution tests at the Institute of Modern Physics in Lanzhou using a mul tiwire drift chamber (MWDC) experimental platform. In the simulation, the same structural and performance parameters were maintained to ensure the reliability of the simulation results. The Gaussian process regression (GPR) algorithm was used as the position-reconstruction algorithm owing to its optimal performance. The re sults of the Time Difference of Arrival algorithm were incorporated as one of the features of the GPR model to reconstruct the muon hit positions. The accuracy of the position reconstruction was evaluated by comparing the experimental results with Geant4 simulation results. In the simulation, large-area plastic scintillator detectors achieved a position resolution better than 20 mm. In the experimental-platform tests, the position resolutions of the test detectors were 27.9 mm. We also analyzed factors affecting the position resolution, including the crit ical angle of the total internal reflection of the photomultiplier tubes and distribution of muons in the MWDC. Simulations were performed to image both large objects and objects with different atomic numbers. The results showed that the system could image high- and low-Z materials in the constructed model and distinguish objects with significant density differences. This study demonstrates the feasibility of the proposed system, thereby providing a new detector system for muon-imaging applications.

  • CMOS direct conversion X-ray detector coupled with fluorinated liquid

    分类: 核科学技术 >> 核探测技术与核电子学 提交时间: 2024-06-25

    摘要: X-ray detectors show potential applications in medical imaging, materials science, and nuclear energy. To achieve high detection efficiency and spatial resolution, many conventional semiconductor materials, such as amorphous selenium, cadmium telluride zinc, and perovskites have been utilized in direct conversion X-ray detectors. However, these semiconductor materials are susceptible to temperature-induced performance degradation, crystallization, delamination, uneven lattice growth, radiation damage, and high dark current. This study explores a new approach by coupling an FC40 electronic fluorinated liquid with a specialized high-resolution and high-readout-speed complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) pixel array, specifically the Topmetal $ textrm{ uppercase expandafter{ romannumeral2}}^{-}$ chip, to fabricate a direct conversion X-ray detector. The fluorinated liquid FC40 (molecular formula: $ ce{C^{21}F^{48}N^2}$) is an electronic medium that is minimally affected by temperature and displays no issues with uniform conductivity. It exhibits a low dark current and minimal radiation damage and enables customizable thickness in X-ray absorption. This addresses the limitations inherent in conventional semiconductor-based detectors. In this study, simple X-ray detector imaging tests were conducted, demonstrating the excellent coupling capability between FC40 electronic fluorinated liquid and CMOS chips by the X-ray detector. A spatial resolution of SI{4.0}{lp/mm} was measured using a striped line par card, and a relatively clear image of a cockroach was displayed in the digital radiography imaging results. Preliminary test results indicated the feasibility of fabricating an X-ray detector by combining FC40 electronic fluorinated liquid and CMOS chips. Owing to the absence of issues related to chip-material coupling, a high spatial resolution could be achieved by reducing the chip pixel size. This method presents a new avenue for studies on novel liquid-based direct conversion X-ray detectors.
