Description

球形電極空氣游離腔Spherical electrode air free cavity

一種球形電極空氣游離腔,應用於輻射劑量標準實驗室,作為國家實驗室或二級校正實驗室之量測標準,並可作為X-光機、加馬照射裝備及直線加速器等裝置輸出輻射劑量之量測,其可在靈敏體積內產生均勻之電場強度,避免於收集飽和電流時必須升高工作電壓,增加漏電流,而影響量測準確度及損壞儀器。A spherical electrode air free cavity is applied to a radiation dose standard laboratory as a measurement standard of a national laboratory or a secondary calibration laboratory, and can be used as an X-ray machine, a horse-horse irradiation equipment, and a linear accelerator to output a radiation dose. The measurement can generate a uniform electric field intensity in a sensitive volume, avoiding the need to raise the working voltage when collecting the saturation current, increase the leakage current, and affect the measurement accuracy and damage the instrument.

空氣游離腔(air ionization chamber)普遍應用在輻射照射設備之劑量輸出量測,如:X光機、鈷-60治療機、直線加速器等,藉以了解輻射照射設備之輸出劑量是否正確。The air ionization chamber is commonly used in the dose output measurement of radiation irradiation equipment, such as X-ray machine, cobalt-60 treatment machine, linear accelerator, etc., to understand whether the output dose of the radiation irradiation equipment is correct.

為了使游離腔有最大的量測電流輸出,以及有最小的量測信號損失,以增進信號量測之準確度,良好之游離腔應具備有下列特性:(1)有良好的長期穩定性;(2)有良好的再現性;(3)漏電流小;(4)能量依持性低;(5)離子再結合少;(6)量測不受方向影響。。In order to make the free cavity have the largest measured current output and the smallest measurement signal loss to improve the accuracy of signal measurement, a good free cavity should have the following characteristics: (1) good long-term stability; (2) good reproducibility; (3) low leakage current; (4) low energy dependence; (5) less ion recombination; (6) measurement is not affected by direction. .

目前市售之球形或圓柱形空氣游離腔所使用之電極為棒狀,容易造成腔內電場均勻度不佳,使腔內角落區域之信號漏失,而當游離腔體積增加時,為收集飽和電流時,必須使用較高之工作電壓,但電壓過高時會產生氣體增殖現象,而易形成漏電流,降低量測訊號之準確度,不能達到良好游離腔之特性。The electrodes used in the commercially available spherical or cylindrical air free cavity are rod-shaped, which tends to cause poor uniformity of the electric field in the cavity, and the signal in the corner region of the cavity is lost, and when the free cavity volume is increased, the saturation current is collected. When a higher operating voltage must be used, when the voltage is too high, gas proliferation occurs, and leakage current is easily formed, and the accuracy of the measurement signal is lowered, and the characteristics of a good free cavity cannot be achieved.

本發明係有關於一種游離腔,尤指一種能作全腔體信號收集,避免腔體內離子信號漏失,並使用較低之工作電壓即可收集到飽和電流,不會產生氣體增殖現象且可降低漏電流,讓量測結果更為精準之球形電極空氣游離腔。The invention relates to an free cavity, in particular to a signal collection of a full cavity, avoiding leakage of ion signals in the cavity, and collecting a saturated current using a lower operating voltage, which does not cause gas proliferation and can be reduced. The leakage current makes the measurement result more accurate and the spherical electrode air free cavity.
