Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Constructing reactor decommissioning technique is indispensable matter associated with Japan’s energy policy. Safety precaution for environment and worker should be ensured by monitoring radiation dose in the nuclear plant. In this study, a semiconductor gamma-ray dose rate meter with energy analytic type has been developed using thallium bromide (TlBr) semiconductor crystals characterized with high gamma-ray interaction efficiency. Semiconductor production process for TlBr crystal with suitable detector performance was constructed by considering material purification method and crystal growth method. TlBr gamma-ray detectors fabricated from grown in this study was successfully realized high energy resolution for gamma-rays from a 137Cs radioactive source.
