COSTA, Priscila. Development of a thermal neutron detector by boron film deposition using laser, 2019. 98 p. Tese (Doutorado em Tecnologia Nuclear) – Instituto de Pesquisas Energéticas e Nucleares – IPEN – CNEN/SP, São Paulo. A portable thermal neutron detector prototype, using a silicon photodiode type PIN coupled to a boron converter, was developed at Nuclear and Energy Research Institute (IPEN-CNEN/SP). The boron layers were made by Pulsed Laser Deposition method using two configurations: directly deposited on the surface of photodiode and at a glass surface. Two prototypes were made in this study using two different associated electronics, in the first prototype is only possible reads signs from the photodiode coupled to boron film and in the second one reads both types of configurations (directly on the photodiode, boron glass). The prototypes were characterized using thermal and cold neutron beam. Four experiments were performed: response of the detection system at neutron beam, linearity test, angular response and repetitive test. The prototypes present a linear behavior, were reproducible and the angular response of the prototypes was not isotropic. The values of intrinsic efficiency from the prototype 1 for thermal and cold neutron were respectively: (1.17 ± 0.01) % e (1.37 ± 0.01) %. In the prototype 2 it was performed an experiment for compare the read out in the detection system for the two possible configuration of system photodiode-boron, in the situation that the boron is part integrant of the system there was an significant increase in the electronic noise, therefore the characterization of this prototype were made using the boron film coupled to the photodiode, and intrinsic efficiency for cold neutron beam was (5.2± 0.4) %.
