Device system and method for miniaturized radiation spectrometer

摘要

A device/system for radiation sensing is configured to detect high and low LET radiation. The radiation sensing system may include a high LET detector and a low LET detector coupled to the high LET detector by a CPU, wherein the high LET detector and the low LET detector are assembled within a single unit. The device/system may also include a high LET and low LET detector that may be coupled together without an internal CPU. Overall, the device/system may be a stand-alone system and/or coupled to an external processing device. The device/system may also be approximately 6.times.6.times.2 cm.sup.3 in size, making it hand portable and may weigh less or equal to approximately ninety (90) grams, and operate on less than or approximately 0.25 watts of power.
