FLAME-SINTERED CERAMIC EXDELECTRON DOSIMETER SAMPLES

摘要

New techniques for the preparation of integrating solid state dosimeters, particularly exoelectron dosimeters, have been initiated. The procedure consists in melting the powdered dosimeter materials in a hot, fast gas stream and depositing the droplets onto a sample substrate, thus sintering a sensitive ceramic layer. The gas stream is generated either through a chemical flame or by an electrical are plasma. Results will be reported on the system Al2O3/stainless steel as a first step to a usable exoelectron dosimeter.
