Detailed description of the invention
Fig. 1 is the schematic block diagram of board-like fast neutron position, microchannel in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention gas detector.As it is shown in figure 1, board-like fast neutron position, microchannel gas detector comprises gas chamber 16, drift negative electrode 10, MCA plate 11, gas electron multiplier 14, high pressure bleeder circuit 12, reads PCB15 and working gas 13.
Specifically, gas chamber 16 provides an airtight working environment for detector, plays shielding action and is allowed to not disturbed by external electrical field.Fix drift negative electrode 10, MCA plate 11, gas electron multiplier 14 simultaneously, read the position of PCB15 and ensure accurate position relationship between them.Gas chamber 16 can be adapted to provide for closed environment and shielding external electric field function by any and be had the material of certain mechanical strength and make.Such as, stainless steel, aluminium are all the candidate materials manufacturing gas chamber 16.Owing to the neutron absorption cross-section of aluminium is lower, the most in a preferred embodiment of the invention, gas chamber 16 is made of aluminum.On the premise of meeting air-tightness and requirement of mechanical strength, gas chamber 16 should be the thinnest, and selects the relatively low material of self radioactivity as far as possible.As for concrete thickness, those skilled in the art are appropriately arranged with according to above-mentioned teaching in actual applications.
Drift negative electrode 10 is fixed in gas chamber 16, and connects negative high voltage.Drift negative electrode 10 material can be aluminium.
MCA plate 11 is fixed in the gas chamber 16 of band port, is positioned at immediately below drift cathode 10 and keeps level.Being filled with working gas in microchannel, whole MCA plate is in direction by the electric field reading PCB15 sensing drift negative electrode 10.
The material of MCA plate 11 is made up of hydrogenous material, as neutron transformant.This is because neutron and proton therein are had an effect can pound out recoil proton generation signal, therefore should select the material that hydrogeneous mass ratio is high and density is big as far as possible.Therefore select high density polyethylene (HDPE) in a preferred embodiment of the invention.
Referring to as in figure 2 it is shown, the geometry of MCA plate 11 can be cuboid, cylinder or square.It is cuboid in a preferred embodiment of the invention.
Fig. 3 is the schematic enlarged perspective of an embodiment of MCA plate 11 in pie graph 1.MCA plate 11 can be considered as the set of the minor structure shown in Fig. 3.Minor structure is the cuboid of the microchannel containing a hollow.Described microchannel is shaped as cylinder or cuboid, its cross section correspondingly, for circular or square.Such minor structure is arranged in parallel forms by many for MCA plate 11.The geometry of minor structure can be by thickness L, bore dia D, and channel center describes away from W, the most indirectly determines the geometry of MCA plate 11.When microchannel is shaped as cuboid, bore dia D should be understood by length of side D, lower same.
Process ensures the slickness of MCA plate 11 microchannel inner surface as much as possible, to reduce electric field distortion as far as possible.
It is emphasized that the key point of the present invention is that the geometry utilizing MCA plate 11 is to realize high detection efficient and high spatial resolution.Therefore the overall performance of detector is the most sensitive to the geometric parameter of above-mentioned minor structure.Further, present inventors appreciate that, position resolution is mainly determined away from W by bore dia D and channel center.Specifically, under certain bore dia D, increase channel center is away from W, can significantly reduce the range of recoil proton, make recoil signal concentrate on around incidence point.Bore dia D then limits the range of scatter of electronics, is equally beneficial for the concentration of signal, improves position resolution.Detection efficient is that channel center together decides on away from W by thickness L, bore dia D.Specifically, neutron detection efficiency is decided by that the generation rate of recoil proton, the escapement ratio of recoil proton and electronics go out the product of porosity three.Wherein the generation rate of recoil proton increases along with the increase of thickness L;The escapement ratio of recoil proton improves away from the reduction of W with channel center, and electronics goes out porosity and then increases along with the increase of bore dia D, reduces with the increase of thickness L.
Neutron source power spectrum in applying due to reality is different, therefore thickness L, bore dia D, and channel center is all adjustable in parameter away from W.It can be adjusted by those skilled in the art according to actual conditions.
Gas electron multiplier 14 (GEM, Gas Electron Multiplier) it is positioned in the gas chamber 16 of band port, plays the effect amplifying signal.As it is shown in figure 1, it is positioned at the underface of MCA plate 11, and being provided high pressure by high pressure bleeder circuit 12, representative value is 300V ~ 600V, forms highfield in the hole of multiplier.Correspondingly, it is allowed to there is two or more gas electron multiplier 14 too low with reply signal amplitude, the situation that gain is inadequate.But increase gas electron multiplier 14 and may drag the time response of slow detector, and making bleeder circuit provide higher voltage, gas electron multiplier 14 only has one the most in a preferred embodiment of the invention.
High pressure bleeder circuit 12 terminates negative high voltage, other end ground connection at Drift electrodes 10.Suitable dividing potential drop is provided for whole detector.The electric-field intensity of diverse location in the gas chamber 16 of band port can be controlled, in order to preferably collect signal by the resistance reasonably arranging divider resistance.Utilize high pressure bleeder circuit 12 be gas electron multiplier 14 connect bleeder resistance can the yield value of effective stabilizing gas electron multiplier 14.This way is well known to those skilled in the art, and therefore it will not go into details herein.
Read PCB15 to be placed in the gas chamber 16 of band port, the amplitude information of position and correspondence in order to obtain signal.Reading and have reading anode on PCB15, playback mode can be read by micro-or disk array, is read by thin film field-effect pipe or CMOS reading is also feasible.Because micro-or disk array read the positional information that can obtain signal with lower unit cost, therefore as the preferred object of one embodiment of the present of invention.For the consideration of minimizing electronics way, it is highly preferred that be micro-reading.Read micro-the closeest, location fast neutron incoming position just can more accurately, but this also causes the signal amplitude on single reading bar to reduce.It is further preferred that read on PCB every millimeter of at least reading bar of more than 1.
The optional inert gas of working gas 13 being filled with cavity has neon, argon gas;Quenching gas has carbon dioxide and methane.In view of containing more proton in methane, being unfavorable for improving signal to noise ratio, the preferred gas component of one embodiment of the present of invention is argon gas and carbon dioxide, and wherein the volume ratio of argon gas is chosen as 75% ~ 95%.Add a small amount of polyatomic molecule gas to improve the drift velocity of electronics and weaken electrons spread effect and complex effect, there is quencher function simultaneously, prevent the electric discharge behavior of gas electron multiplier 14.But owing to mixing gas component adds the unstability of detector performance, so argon gas volume ratio is preferably 90% in one embodiment of the present of invention, preferably air pressure is a standard atmospheric pressure.
It addition, gaseous species and ratio in order to ensure working gas do not change, by pre-set gas mixed proportion, working gas can be persistently filled with by air admission hole by mass flow controller the gas chamber 16 of band port.
In order to realize high detection efficient and high spatial resolution, actual this detector of application also needs to combine certain detection method.Present inventors appreciate that, if neutron vertical incidence MCA plate 11, its positional information can be obtained the most accurately, but so a large amount of neutrons are not involved in reaction directly through microchannel, reduce detection efficient.Neutron is the most easily made to produce relatively multi signal in the position away from incidence point if incidence angle is excessive, although to improve detection efficient but be so unfavorable for position resolution, it is therefore desirable to rationally to select the angle of incident fast neutron and MCA plate 11.Therefore thus in one embodiment of the present of invention incident angle be preferably-5 ° ~ 5 °.
Neutron howitzer can have polyethylene, iron or lead etc. by material selection.For kinetic energy > fast neutron of 4MeV, generally select iron or lead, for the fast neutron that kinetic energy is less, generally select hydrogenous material such as polyethylene.Because the power spectrum of neutron source is often continuous print in actual application, therefore the material of neutron howitzer can be selected for the mixture of powders of above-mentioned material.Because this detector is insensitive to thermal neutron, therefore collimater only needs to consider the slowing down problem of fast neutron.Those skilled in the art in actual applications should be according to above-mentioned teaching, and the material component of neutron howitzer is made the appropriate adjustments by the neutron source for different power spectrums.
Neutron howitzer is placed between the gas chamber 16 of object to be imaged and band port, with object keeping parallelism to be imaged and with gas chamber 16 in an angle in order to ensure that incident direction and the MCA plate normal angle of Neutron Beam are limited at-5 ° ~ 5 °.This can be realized by material and the size of appropriate design neutron howitzer according to different neutron source.
As shown in Figure 4, a panel detector structure simplified is make use of to schematically show the detection process of fast neutron.After the fast neutron collimated through neutron howitzer injects MCA plate 11, hydrogenous material from which is pounded out recoil proton p and becomes scattered neutron n ', and scattered neutron n ' continues flight with the proton effect in MCA plate 11 until being absorbed or fly out MCA plate 11.The recoil proton p part pounded out has been stayed in MCA plate 11, and another part escapes out and ionizes out a large amount of electronics e in microchannel, electronics e is gone out passage by pulling under the effect of electric field, continue thereafter with drift and enter gas electron multiplier 14, there is snowslide under strong electric field, producing a large amount of electronics, these electronics e continues to drift about to anode direction under the effect of electric field subsequently, and induces signal in reading PCB15.
Referring to as it is shown in figure 1, board-like fast neutron position, microchannel gas detector is near the plane of incidence that one end of drift negative electrode is fast neutron, the fast neutron collimated through neutron howitzer is injected from the direction.MCA plate 11 is along its thickness direction, near the incident fast neutron of drift negative electrode one end reception.
Additionally, in other embodiments of the present invention, can be using board-like fast neutron position, apllied for present invention microchannel gas detector as a detector cells, according to being actually needed the multiple such unit of flexible configuration to meet imaging needs.
Referring to as it is shown in figure 5, front-end electronics is divided into two-way, a road is flip-flop number circuit, extracts circuit offer triggering signal from drawing signal near the gas electron multiplier 14 read PCB15 as position, counts signal pulse simultaneously.Another road is to amplify wave-shaping circuit, and it receives from reading the signal of telecommunication of PCB15 and it being amplified shaping;Delay circuit, carries out time delay to from the signal amplifying wave-shaping circuit so that extracts circuit in position and receives and be just admitted to position extraction circuit from signal after the triggering signal of flip-flop number circuit;Circuit is extracted in position, processes the signal through time delay, extracts positional information, the online incoming position obtaining neutron.
The general principle of the present invention and principal character and advantages of the present invention have more than been shown and described.Skilled person will appreciate that of the industry; the present invention is not restricted to the described embodiments; being intended merely to described in above-described embodiment and specification preferably illustrates the principle of the present invention; without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; the present invention also has various changes and modifications, and these changes and improvements both fall within scope of the claimed invention.Claimed scope is defined by appending claims and equivalent thereof.
