Abstract

1,147,757. Electrometer dosimeters. TELEFUNKEN PATENTVERWERTUNGS G.m.b.H. April 14, 1966 [April 15, 1965; Jan. 22, 1966], No. 16415/66. Heading G1Q. [Also in Division H1] A radiation dosimeter consists of two concentric cylinders 3, 12 and a fibre or like electrometer 5 connected to measure the potential difference between them. The two cylinders are of different materials and the dosimeter works on the principle that a potential difference is set up between them in consequence of the difference in electron yield of the two materials in the presence of ionizing radiation. The inner cylinder is a glass rod and the outer a metal tube, the glass having a lower average atomic number than the metal. The glass may be coated with a substance having an even lower atomic number, e.g. graphite, beryllium or titanium. The electrometer fibre is observed by an optical system whose axis is aligned with that of the glass rod, and to provide a compact construction the rod itself is part of the optical system. Thus in Fig. 2, 10 is a lens for viewing the fibre 5, the necessary light entering the opposite end of the casing and traversing the glass rod 3. Alternatively, as in Fig. 3 (not shown), a window (23) adjacent the fibre end of the dosimeter admits light to the casing and the optical system consists of an objective lens (31) bonded to or integrally ground on the adjacent end of the glass rod and an eye-piece lens (48) closing the other end of the casing.
