Fast neutron tracker based on 3D position sensitive semiconductor voxel detector
Original language description
We present the first results of a fast neutron tracker based on a silicon voxel detector combined with a plastic scintillators. The concept of the voxel detector is based on a multilayer structure composed of stacked Timepix devices forming a 3D matrix of sensitive elements - voxels. Such voxel detector maintains compact size while having greatly improved detection efficiency and tracking capabilities. Such voxel detector can be used in various fields (e.g. Compton camera). In this contribution we present application of the voxel detector for tracking of fast neutrons. The multilayer structure of the voxel detector is interlaced with thin layers of plastic scintillators with attached silicon photo multipliers (SiPM). Fast neutron recoils proton from the plastic scintillator. The recoiled proton loses part of its energy in the scintillator and hits the Timepix device. It was already proved that it is possible, from the data measured by the SiPM and Timepix, determine the energy, positio
