CPND can provide accurate and precise measure of both the neutron spectrum and dose equivalent for ten neutron fields as well as five radio-isotopic environments. These results can also be improved by few adjustments of the CPND. These modifications or adjustment comprises of checking the CPND TLD-600 elements and evaluating their thermal neutron sensitivity. Further modifications include further definition of energy intervals and the development of a matrix based spectrum deconvolution algorithm.
There are several factors that affect the response of TLD-600 albedo-based dosimeter. These factors include:
- the distance from the phantom to the detector - the size of the crystal and the doping materials added - the thickness and configuration of ...
