Self-Powered Neutron Detector

Rhodium Emitter – Rhodium-based SPND. One possible material is rhodium as the emitter. An SPND with a rhodium emitter has relatively high sensitivity, a high burn-up rate that perturbs the local power density, and a (two-fold) delayed signal.A Rhodium-based detector is the beta-current type of self-powered detector, which uses the following activation reaction to produce a current …
