Abstract

A simplified design method of electronic personal dose equivalent and/or dose equivalent rate monitoring device for ionizing radiations. The basic concept of the method lies in the mathematics between the discrimination level of radiation induced electric pulse and response property of a detector to mixed type of ionizing radiations. To meet the regulation requirements, conventional configuration needs multiple filter/detector sets which will greatly complicate mechanical and electronic designs. However, this invention can serve the same purpose with greatly simplified filter/detector and circuitry configurations. It may greatly reduce the size and manufacturing cost of the so called ""dose of record"" electronic personal radiation monitor and offer a performance improvement unveiled before.

However, in the face of increasingly stringent regulations on radiation protection and social requirements, its important shortcomings are increasingly emerging: (a) Extremely low sensitivity and poor accuracy. The reading cycle is usually in units of months, and its effectiveness is limited to ex post records. Even if there is a high sensitivity product, there is a serious decay effect, and the long-term release of the poor material disappears; (b) its dosimeter reading and offline processing, the meter reading machine increases errors, and the accuracy adjustment control procedures are cumbersome After reading once, all the data will be destroyed, it can not be reviewed, and it is not easy to gain trust. (C) Dosimetry cannot be read directly, can not be based on continuous recording on the spot and immediately issued a warning, establish an effective online real-time radiation protection system, and cannot meet users' high expectations for safety. Li Yiyue said that since the low-cost, low-voltage, low-Z-value silicon photodiodes were successfully used in personnel detectors, since 1990, Shixi debt detectors have been used electronically. The meter is adopted by nuclear power plants in various countries in the world for use by central guards. It replaces the free-cavity dose pen as an auxiliary dose control of traditional glue > 5 badges and thermoluminescent dosimeters. The meter has the following advantages: (a). Immediate personal radiation dose ^ Helps Zhenzhen to resolve the radiation button in his workplace, through the crisis, to provide work μΓδ degrees of safety, full sense, easy to achieve radiation dose control is extremely important, , Reasonable suppression and purpose, (b) · It has 100 times higher radiation sensitivity and direction χΓ type accurate measurement performance than thermal hair meter, plus it can be directly connected with the computer for data exchange, which is not appropriate; ^ It can integrate the functions of alarm assistance and dose control in the machine; ⑹. Contains low cost to improve physical performance, and is based on a large number of program limits, ⑽4 accuracy, and adds a variety of human / regional radiation agents ( d) Using modern cast body remotely ^^ human tube solution _ 'Μ 致increase cost. Kubozai, 4-Technology, with rain on the right, the original recording of radiation dose data is almost permanent, and can be used to create localized pollution images from the two-dimensional array chip sensor, replacing the traditional wired and wireless digital of the traditional 1244556 i-chip. The network environment is suitable. If there is a need, the user can record the dose data of the round shot. It can be monitored in any way. [Previous Technology] Zhang Zhiΐί ΪΓ 员 Ϊ 外 贝 = 一 _5 Development can replace the existing heat. The luminous dosimeter and film dosing rate are 4-way dosage meters, which perform in vitro exposure, strong penetration and superficial equivalents, and are covered by the scope of “Lin Miscellaneous Protection”. Suppose that ^^ TTTf = Faotoufadiao is specially designed for medical and non-medical personnel dosimetry to measure photon and beta-ray radiation. They are respectively responsible for the system's equivalent dose and equivalent equivalent dose. . Due to the extremely high complexity of the production of Dugong's personnel, even if it is in advanced countries, it is not a human settlement. Only a few EU countries can produce and claim that it can replace tld. Due to the complex structure and increased power consumption of electronic dosimeters that require dose management (App D Dosimetry Service, or Dose of = ord), the volume and weight of radiation adjustment and calibration are complicated, the cost is high, and it is not easy to be widely used in the market. Accepted. The car is big. Due to the technological evolution, the electric control system has been voiced by the purely control unit of the New Zealander, and since 1994, many European Union countries (English, French, Norwegian) have officially Recognize the legal validity of the electronic human vigilance alarm record. The Society of Miscellaneous Touch (H and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has also set up a working group to review the dosimeter regulations for personnel such as Qu 1 13 27 and 45B, and will be electronic Traditional people measuring Scope. Although two sets of sliver circuits are used with different filter-type electronic manometers to meet the regulatory requirements for statutory agents, the developed products, whether in production, quality control or calibration, are extremely complicated and appear redundant and consume power. It is impossible to reduce the size and hinder the development of lighter enemy equipment. 1244556 [Content of the invention] The design method proposed by the present invention is to apply modern digital production with low cost and low power consumption. It has multiple digital / analog converters (Digital t0 Analog Converter) output microcomputer = unified single film and its powerful computing power 'Prefers low production cost, extremely power saving and portability * rejection, eliminating the traditional three sets of independent detector circuits with fixed low-energy light beam The complex method of identification and translation is replaced by four sets of adjustable level electronic discriminators. Only one set of detection and detection circuit is required with the quotient of no outfitting material_photodiode chip, using the tilter and the discriminator threshold The mathematical correlation between the voltage and the change in the energy response of the radiation can be directly obtained by the program system. The result of the system depends on the change of the response characteristics of the stored energy. The wire matrix, the vertical wire type calculation and the calculation of the radiation class and the ratio, and then calculate the correct equivalent dose data can improve the instrument's ability to identify and correct the radiation, while simplifying the system's hardware design complexity and reducing power consumption. Reference is made to the principles of the invention and solid green design. The radiation detection head and signal processing circuit are suitable for the commercial radiation detection head of the present invention, which is a silicon photodiode. Because the atomic sequence and density are closer to human tissue, Low cost, small size (~ 〇lcc), low working voltage, suitable for radiation practitioners to carry around; electronic equivalent dose monitor applications such as tritium emission, light emission etc. due to its working principle Each absorption—light emission of particle energy, generates a free charge and then generates a micro-press pulse. The photodiode's photodiode radiation detection signal processing circuit is shown in Figure i. It must rely on filters and filters (1〇 Unless the personnel are in the equivalent dose measurement range of radiation particles (such as: alpha rays), Shi Xi photodiodes (moving) absorb light-emitting particle energy to generate ionized charges, charge-sensitive preamplifiers (103) and polar _ Compensation discharge: a circuit (1〇4) to the silicon photodiode charge signal amplified by the absorption of radiation particles and Crystallization of generating ionizing energy, and then into the differential amplifier (105). The discrimination amplifier is a comparator. The pot is used to compare the height of the voltage pulse sent by the preamplifier with a preset threshold voltage ν. . Then 1244556 = number n combined with the micro processing logic pulse occurrence and multi-recruitment, you can use the digital signal processing circuit (107) such as :: number program to calculate the radiation field intensity?, ^ To the radiation dose. The use of threshold voltages, on the one hand, filters out the noise generated by silicon photoelectricity and the body mouth; on the other hand, because of the correlation between the shape of the voltage pulse and the statistical distribution of the amount of radiation particle species, as long as the concealed # 之The design of electronic hardware and software can use the analysis of moral training to replace the special design, and the interim design can calculate the correct equivalent dose. The traditional method of resolving radiant particles is, 'Which type is used, the legal person's external exposure radiometer must be able to provide the equivalent equivalent of H (l 〇) and the epidermis below the epidermal ο; / mm depth of the equivalent equivalent to find 〇〇. According to the working principle of the legal personnel external exposure radiation dosimeter composed of several tens of systems at present, the standard external exposure, radiation, and efficacy dosimeter must be able to provide the correct system of the following radiation particles: ⑴ · $ Ray: Since the maximum amount of Emax = 500keV (Such as: Sr-90), 700keV (such as: Tl_204, Cl-36), to 2.3MeV (such as Υ-90); (2) · Gamma rays from Am-241 (60keV) to N-16 (6MeV ); (3) Z-rays from M30 (< 20keV) to H150 (120keV). The standard design is either passive (LiF: Mg, Ti, Hot Pressed thermal light-emitting wafer) or active (Si PhOtOdiode, pulse electronic amplification and counting as shown in Figure 2), using three sets Radiation detectors with filters made of different materials (eg. The equivalent dose H (10) in the deep subcutaneous layer with a 1mm thick AgS plastic plus a 0.4mm Teflon combination filter, equal to 1000mg / cm2; subcutaneous 70um Shallow equivalent dose Η (0 · 07) uses 38um Aluminized Mylar; consider tablets, equal to I7mg / cm2 ... etc) to simulate the attenuation effect of free radiation caused by penetrating the human skin epidermal tissue at different depth conditions, and then measure them separately ./5, χ, y The radiant energy transmitted by various wheel rays to the debt detector is compared and combined according to the type and energy of the radiated radiation that can be tolerated. 〇), and Η (0.07). Therefore, from the design point of view, the design of any legal personnel dosimeter must have two functions: one is to identify the type of radiation, the energy range and the ratio of the personnel to be exposed; the other is to convert the measured value to the basis of radiation protection according to the discrimination result. Physical quantity. 1244556 Theoretical basis for resolving radiant particles in electronic circuits. The present invention abandons the traditional method of using precision radiation filters with multiple miscellaneous devices. Instead, it uses warships and identification agencies to operate as dragons. -Only the detector can achieve the identification of the type and energy of light rays, which can greatly reduce the design complexity, power consumption, and power consumption caused by the electronic dosimeter circuit and mechanism design. Necessary means for miniaturization of electronic legal equivalent dose monitor. We use an example to illustrate the principle of identifying the type and energy of light rays electronically: we only need to-only remove the resin chip on the surface of the surface of the package. BPW 34FAS or similar element) with a coating point on it, a film that can be penetrated by χ and r radiation (for example: 38mn Aluminized Mylar diaphragm, 17mg / cmA2), with a standard preamplifier and pulse shaping on the back of the detector The circuit, and then the pulse discriminator of the adjustable low limit level (Vth) discriminates the shaped radiation pulse from the noise, and directly turns it into a digital logic pulse. Figure 2 shows the effect of the low limit setting value (Vth) of the pulse height discriminator on the sensitivity (cps / mrem / hr) characteristics of the silicon radiation detector under different energy χ + τ and recording rays. . After finishing the drawing 2, if we use \ = 2〇1 ^ as the standard value, check the sensitivity of radiation particles of different types and energies under a fixed detector voltage ^

Since silicon = radiation 4 detection is different for light-emitting particles of different types and energies due to different interactions, the sensitivity varies considerably with changes. We can use this difference to detect a single silicon radiation detector h and The signal generated by the analog pulse amplification integer circuit uses the value of the comparator ^^ to make use of the characteristics shown in Figure 3 above to identify the type and energy of the radiation particles, which is equivalent to the function of an analog filter, and at the same time, it is equivalent to three different Equivalent radiation intensity measurement of the measuring range detector. ’With this design, the effective equivalent dose or dose rate caused by the external exposure of the radiation to human tissue can be easily calculated after the calibration of the standard radiation source. Because of the existing semiconductor electronics technology, the above-mentioned pulse height discriminator limit voltage adjustment can be easily achieved by using a microcomputer chip with a digital analog conversion interface, and it has the flexibility to control the digitizable program. Therefore, the invention was proposed early. < The electronic method of chastity detector is far more in line with the practical needs of future devices toward miniaturization and intelligence. Method for identifying the radiation particles of a single detector This section will describe in detail how to use the response characteristics of the single detector of Figures 2 and 3 to various light-emitting particles to measure the I for practical circuit design. The signal / noise quality of the polar body detector and preamplifier must reach the applicable range of the light energy that can be detected. For example, the cold particles can measure at least the average energy of T1-204 250keV and the effective energy of χ ray M30 20keV. Due to the design countermeasures of a single chastity detector, we must apply the least shielding to the sensing direction of the diode detector, and only add a call on it. Fortunately, X, Y § ray can penetrate the film (38um Aluminized Mylar filter, 17mg / cmA2), and directly use the unpackaged silicon photodiode detection chip as a debt detector.

其次我們採用如附圖4所示之電路,以多組具有不同vth設定值(例 如20,40, 60,80與100 mV等五組)之脈高鑑別電路搭配獨立之計數器, 對放大整型處理後之偵檢器輻射脈衝信號,同步進行記錄,假設其所 獲得之脈衝計數率分別為C(20),C(1 2 3 4〇),C(60),C(80)與C(100),參考 附圖2、3,並根據美國能源部對法定劑量計校測實驗室檢定計畫 DOELAP (Department of Energy Laboratory Accreditation Program),將 法定劑量計校測所需之標準輻射粒子分為以下類: 12 1 .Category IIJV-高能 r 射線,Cs-137(E=662keV); 2 .Category Ι,ΙΙΙΑ-低能 χ 射線,M30(平均能量 Eav=20keV),M60 3 (Eav=27keV),M100(Eav=42keV), M150( Eav = 4 70keV), H150 (Eav= 120keV); 1244556 ⑶.Category VA,VB,VC -高低能 /3 射線,Sr-90/Y-90 (Emax = 2.3MeV)Secondly, we adopt the circuit shown in Figure 4 to use multiple sets of pulse height discrimination circuits with different vth setting values (for example, five sets of 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 mV) with independent counters. The processed detector radiates pulse signals and records them synchronously, assuming that the pulse counting rates obtained are C (20), C (1 2 3 4〇), C (60), C (80), and C ( 100), with reference to Figures 2 and 3, and according to the US Department of Energy ’s DOELAP (Department of Energy Laboratory Accreditation Program), the standard radiation particles required for legal dosimeter calibration are divided into The following categories: 12 1 .Category IIJV-high energy r-ray, Cs-137 (E = 662keV); 2.Category Ⅰ, ΙΙΙΑ- low energy χ-ray, M30 (average energy Eav = 20keV), M60 3 (Eav = 27keV), M100 (Eav = 42keV), M150 (Eav = 4 70keV), H150 (Eav = 120keV); 1244556 ⑶.Category VA, VB, VC-high and low energy / 3 rays, Sr-90 / Y-90 (Emax = 2.3MeV )

Tl-204 (Emax=760keV) 〇 在DOELAP中,為鑑定法定劑量計可信度,除要求劑量計接受上述 各類輻射粒子單獨照射檢查輻射劑量讀值之準確性外,並要求不同之 輻射粒子混合照射,如高低能光子(III & IV),高能光子加高(低)能貝他 (IV&V),低能光子加高(低)能貝他(III&V)···等等。因此,我們依照附圖 3之特性與⑴-⑶分類用Rhg(662keV Cs-137,與1.25MeV Co-60等高能 加馬(X)光子),Rmx (30-60keV低能NIST標準X光子源),Rlx (2〇 keV以 下低能NIST標準X光子源),Rhb(Y-90/Sr-9〇高能貝他粒子),Rlb(T1- 204 馨 低能貝他粒子)分別代表不同輻射粒子之強度(以H(〇 〇7)淺部等效輻射 劑量率mSv/hr表示)。因此我們可以將總脈衝計數率c(Vth)分解為各不 同輻射粒子之計數率Cxx(Vth)成份,且有各自對應之反應因數ρχχ (counts per second per mSv/h ),如下式(1)所示: c(Vth) = ^Fxx(Vth)xRxx (1)Tl-204 (Emax = 760keV) 〇 In DOELAP, in order to determine the credibility of legal dosimeters, in addition to requiring the dosimeter to accept the above types of radiation particles to irradiate individually to check the accuracy of the radiation dose readings, different radiation particles are required. Mixed irradiation, such as high and low energy photons (III & IV), high energy photons increase (low) energy beta (IV & V), low energy photons increase (low) energy beta (III & V) ... etc. . Therefore, we use Rhg (662keV Cs-137, 1.25MeV Co-60 and other high-energy gamma (X) photons) and Rmx (30-60keV low-energy NIST standard X-ray source) according to the characteristics of Figure 3 and ⑴-⑶ classification. , Rlx (low-energy NIST standard X-ray photon source below 20 keV), Rhb (Y-90 / Sr-9〇 high-energy beta particles), and Rlb (T1- 204 sweet low-energy beta particles) respectively represent the intensity of different radiation particles ( Expressed as H (〇07) shallow equivalent radiation dose rate mSv / hr). Therefore, we can decompose the total pulse count rate c (Vth) into the count rate Cxx (Vth) components of different radiation particles, and have their corresponding response factors ρχχ (counts per second per mSv / h), as shown in the following formula (1) As shown: c (Vth) = ^ Fxx (Vth) xRxx (1)
