Abstract

In many research fields and industry such as nuclear physics, notably nuclear technology, fusion plasma diagnostics, radiotherapy and radiation protection, it is very substantial that measure fast neutron spectra. For example in nuclear reactor primary generated neutrons have energies around 2 MeV that lie fast neutron category. Also particle accelerators and Am-Be neutron source raise fast neutrons. Therefore a review of silicon based fast neutron detection with proton recoil methods is surveyed. Furthermore Carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) with simple and low cost preparation methods with exceptional electrical properties have been used widely in nanoelectronic applications such as radiation sensors. In this chapter, fast neutron detectors using Carbon based semiconductor, back-to-back Schottky diode type, and polyethylene as convertor are developed and the Am-Be fast neutron source is used in experimental measurements.
