Development of Fiber Optic Radiation Monitor using Plastic Scintillation Fibers [PDF]
Journal of Nuclear Science and Technology, 1998 We have developed a radiation monitor by using plastic scintillation fibers (PSF), which we call the fiber optic radiation monitor. For wide-area radiation monitoring, the detection part needs to be longer, therefore we have produced a prototype monitor by combining the PSF and the silica fiber for optical propagation.
