Fiber Brag grating sensors were written in standard Ge-doped telecom optical fiber (Corning SMF-28) using an 800nm femtosecond laser and a phase mask. It were exposed to gamma-radiation up to a dose of 100 kGy to evaluate the radiation effect. The fs-FBG-2 sensor showed incomplete optical characteristics during irradiation, but the fs-FBG-1 sensor showed excellent radiation resistance with Bragg wavelength shift(BWS) of less than 10pm at a dose of 100 kGy.

광변환 물질을 사용하여 X-선이나 감마방사선을 가시광으로 변환한 다음 CCD 카메라를 통하여 광량을 측정하면 방사선의 양을 간접적으로 측정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 CCD형 비상대용 로봇용 고속 삼차원 방사선 위치 탐지장치에서 방사선 위치 센싱의 핵심 역할을 수행하는 CCD 방사선 탐지부를 간접 방사선 측정 방법을 응용하여 고안하고 구현한 다음 이에 대한 방사선 특성시험을 수행하였다. 시험 결과로 부터 구현한 CCD형 방사선 센서가 방사선 위치 및 선량 탐지장치로 활용 가능성이 충분함 확인하였다.

In this study we designed the radiation-hardened sensor signal processing modules that can be commonly used for a variety of sensors during normal operation and even in high-radiation environments caused by an accident. First development module was designed to receive the change of the R and C value from the sensors and to process the signal as a PWM modulation scheme. This module was assessed to have ± 10% error to the Full-Scale in the radiation test in the range of 12 kGy TID. The main cause of the error was analyzed as the annealing of the common circuit in the switching element and the consequent increase in the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation circuit according to the radiation dose increasement. The redesigned module for higher radiation resistivity with Stub transistor circuit was found to have less than 5% error to the Full-scale from the radiation test results for 20.7 kGy TID range.

In this paper, the characteristics of therapy radiation diode sensors have been studied by using therapy radiation from the MM22 microtron accelerator. The linearity, reproducibility and error ratio were measured for feasibility as a radiation detector. Energy dependence, sensitivity change after a amount of irradiation and output value according to a number of diodes were also measured for same purpose. We have formed pulse shaping of diode signal with nuclear instruments for portal image reconstruction. The percent depth dose ratio according to field size and depth was compared with that of the detector of a ion chamber. Using thirteen silicon diodes, we can directly read diode outputs on a computer monitor after A/D conversion with 16 channels analog to digital conversion board with 12 bit resolution. The possibility for portal image with diodes has been suggested from output comparison between output value with a human phantom and that without a human phantom.

본 논문은 고에너지 방사선 검출을 위한 흔합형 구조의 방사선 센서를 제작, 반응 특성을 평가하였다. 먼저, 스크린 인쇄법을 이용하여 형광체 필름을 제작하였으며, 발광스펙트럼(PL, Photoluminescence) 및 잔광 시간(decay time) 측정을 통하여 형광체의 발광 특성을 조사하였다. 제작된 혼합구조의 방사선 센서는 $2{\mu}m$ 두께의 $HgI_2$와 $150{\mu}m$ 두께의 형광체 필름으로 제작되었으며, 면적은 $2\;cm\;{\times}\;2\;cm$이다. 방사선에 대한 전기적 검출 신호의 특성을 조사하기 위해 인가전압에 따른 암전류 및 방사선민감도, 선량에 따른 검출신호를 측정하였다. 측정결과, 제작된 $HgI_2$ 필름은 방사선에 의해 형광체에서 방출된 가시광 파장을 잘 흡수하였으며, 진단영역의 저에너지 방사선에 의해 직접 전기적 신호를 발생시켜 높은 방사선 민감도를 보였다. 뿐만 아니라, 인가전압에 대해 $10\;pA/mm^2$이하의 낮은 암전류를 가졌으며, 넓은 조사선량에서 우수한 선형성을 보였다.

Radiation protection, as well as finding the location of the radiation source, such as the Fukushima radiation leak accident, it is important for the early and safe disposal of nuclear accident. The three-dimensional position of the radiation source detection distance of the radiation source can provide additional information to the existing radiation detectors radiation of a two-dimensional position detection function and then it can play a decisive role in the radiation contaminant removal and decontamination work.

In this study, we studied the effect of $Co^{60}$ gamma-radiation on the fiber Bragg gratings written by femtosecond UV laser in single mode optical fibers. The fiber Bragg gratings were exposed to gamma-radiation up to a dose of about 31.6 kGy at the dose rate of 106 Gy/min. According to the experimental data and analysis results, we confirmed Bragg gratings written by femtosecond laser have the excellent radiation-hardened characteristics for high radiation environments.

In this study, we studied the effect of $Co^{60}$ gamma-radiation on the FBGs written in photo-sensitive and commercial Ge-doped single-mode optical fibers. The FBGs were exposed to gamma-radiation up to a dose of 17.8 kGy at the dose rate of 300 Gy/min. According to the experimental data and analysis results, the lowest Bragg wavelength shift (18 pm) was obtained by a grating written in photosensitive fiber without $H_2$-loading.
