Thermal Neutron Detection by CdTe Detector

Abstract:

Thermal neutron detector is developed by using Cadmium telluride (CdTe) semiconductor, due to large thermal neutron capture cross section of Cd. The developed detector demonstrated the occurrence of the 96 keV gamma ray emissions from 113Cd(n, γ) 114Cd reaction.
