Abstract

The evaluation method of neutron dose equivalent was studied on the basis of the albedo type neutron dosimetory to design the personnel dosimeter. The dosimeter was composed of three 6Li210B4O7(Cu) TL elements and one 7Li211B4O7(Cu) element.The equations for assessing thermal, epithermal and fast neutron dose equivalents were derived by 252Cf, 241Am-Be and PuO2 neutron sources.The minimum detectable amount of 6Li210B4O7(Cu) element to thermal neutron was 0.02 mrem. The neutron dose equivalent and the gamma one were evaluated separately within about 20% error in the mixed radiation field.
