1.1This test method covers the use of 2N2222A silicon bipolar transistors as dosimetry sensors in the determination of neutron energy spectra and as 1 Mev(Si) equivalent displacement damage fluence monitors.

1.2The neutron displacement in silicon can serve as a neutron spectrum sensor in the range 0.1 to 2.0 MeV when fission foils are not available. It has been applied in the fluence range between 2 × 10¹² n/cm² to 1 × 10¹⁴ n/cm² and should be useful up to 1 × 10¹⁵ n/cm². This test method details the acquisition and use of 1 Mev(Si) equivalent fluence information for the partial determination of the neutron spectra by using 2N2222A transistors.

1.3This sensor yields a direct measurement of the silicon 1 Mev equivalent fluence by the transfer technique.

1.4The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.5This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory requirements prior to use.
