Recently, electronic personal dosimeters based upon silicon PIN photodiode or miniature GM tube were developed and have attracted a lot of attention because of the advantages of their nature such as indication of dose rate and the cumulative dose, and facilitation of record keeping. In this paper, we have developed a high-sensitivity electronic personal dosimeter with silicon PIN photodiode. The electronic personal dosimeter is constructed with silicon PIN photodiode, preamplifier, and shaping amplifier. To show the effectiveness of electronic personal dosimeter, we conducted nuclear radiation experiments using $\gamma$-ray Ba-133, Cs-137, and Co-60. The electronic personal dosimeter have a good linearity on $\gamma$-ray energy and activity.

The present study made a phantom for gamma ray of 140 keV radiated from $^{99m}Tc$, examined shielding effect of lead by thickness of the shielding material, and measured surface dose and depth dose by body depth. The OSL Nano Dot dosimeter was inserted at 0, 3, 15, 40, 90, and 180 mm depths of the phantom, and when there was no shield, 0.2 mm lead shield, 0.5 mm lead shield, The depth dose was measured. Experimental results show that the total cumulative dose of dosimeters with depth is highest at 366.24 uSv without shield and lowest at 94.12 uSv with 0.5 mm lead shield. The shielding effect of 0.2 mm lead shielding was about 30.18% and the shielding effect of 0.5 mm lead shielding was 74.30%, when the total sum of the accumulated doses of radiation dosimeter was 100%. The phantom depth and depth dose measurements showed the highest values at 0 mm depth for all three experiments and the dose decreases as the depth increases. This study proved that the thicker a shielding material, the highest its shielding effect is against gamma ray of 140 keV. However, it was known that shielding material can't completely shield a body from gamma ray; it reached deep part of a human body. Aside from the International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements (ICRU) recommending depth dose by 10 mm in thickness, a plan is necessary for employees working in department of nuclear medicine where they deal with gamma ray, which is highly penetrable, to measure depth dose by body depth, which can help them manage exposed dose properly.

A dosimeter using tissue-equivalent scintillator by photon-counting method was developed and evaluated in its performance. The dosimeter is portable and can be operated by low power from lap-top computer. A data-acquisition software of the dosimeter system was developed by Labwindows/CVI based on Windows. The energy to channel ratio for energy calibration was 0.839 keV/ch. obtained from pulse height spectrum of $^{137}Cs$ and $^{60}Co$ gamma-ray. Using the dosimeter system, the absorbed dose of environmental radiation in Gyungju was 0.18 ${\mu}Sv/h$.

In this paper, the gamma ray irradiation test results of the CCD cameras are described. From the low dose-rate (2.11 Gy/h) to the high dose-rate (150 Gy/h) level, which is the same level when the hydrogen explosion was occurred in the 1~3 reactor unit of the Fukushima nuclear power plant, the monitoring performance of the cameras owing to the speckles are evaluated. The numbers of speckles, generated by gamma ray irradiation, in the image of cameras are calculated by image processing technique. And the legibility of the sensor indicator (dosimeter) owing to the numbers of the speckles is presented.

X-선과 감마선의 에너지에 따른 선질특성과 선량 및 필름의 사진농도와의 관계를 이용한 필름배지선량계의 선량환산식을 실험적으로 체계화 하였고, 시간경과에 따른 잠상퇴행 특성과 방사선의 입사방향에 따른 방향특성을 실험적으로 조사하여 보정계수를 산출하였다. 본 연구에서 구한 선량환산식은 필름배지선량계의 기술기준인 성능판정 기준을 잘 만족시키는 것으로 나타났다.

녹주석의 열형광현상을 이용하여 감마선 측정가능성을 glow 곡선분석방법으로 연구하였다. 80-200mesh의 녹주석분말은 감마선에 대해 좋은 열형광반응을 보였고 상온에서 안정됨을 알았다. 감마선에 대한 녹주석의 열형광반응은 10mR에서 $10^3$R까지는 선형적관계를 갖고 있었으며, $10^3$R에서 $10^{6}$R까지는 비선형적관계를 갖고 있다. 녹주석에 의한 감마선측정이 가능하다.

A new dyed polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film dosimeter based on 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MMT) tetrazolium dye is proposed in this study for measuring high gamma radiation dose. Gamma cell irradiator that contains Co-60 gamma-ray source was used to expose the novel MMT-PVA films to different doses up to 25 kGy. The changed in optical property of irradiated and unirradiated films were characterized by UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The results show that the dose sensitive and the linear range of irradiated films were increased considerably with increase of MMT concentration from 1 to 5 mM. The dose response of dyed PVA film changed substantially with changing relative humidity (12-74%) as well as irradiation temperature (10-40 ℃). The absorbance of the unirradiated films does not change up to 10 days in dark while a significant increase in their absorbance was reported for similar films under fluorescent light. The irradiated dosimeters that kept in dark showed a perfect stability for 54 days. It was found that no obvious impact of dose rate on the irradiated MMT-PVA film dosimeters.

본 논문은 감마선 방사선 선량을 측정하기 위하여 상용 반도체를 응용하기 위한 실험적 연구에 대하여 다루었다. 실리콘 포토 다이오드는 값이 싸고 작으며 높은 효율과 견고하여 광검출기로 잘 이용되기 때문에 감마선과 같은 방사선 측정에 효과적으로 이용될 수 있다. 대부분의 PN 포토 다이오드는 이 증가함에 따라 역 방향 전류의 증가하는 특성을 가지고 있다. 그러므로 이 소자들의 공핍층이 역 방향 전류에 영향을 주므로 이 공핍층의 면적이 큰 PIN 포토 다이오드를 선택하였다. 이 연구에서는 방사선량을 검출하고 감마선 선량계를 개발하는데 적용하기 위하여, PIN 다이오드에 대해 몇 가지 실험이 수행되었다. NEC사의 PH 302와 SIEMENS사의 BPW 34와 같은 2가지 종류의 포토 다이오드를 반도체 분석장치를 사용하여 $\gamma$선 방사선원인 Co-60의 저준위 시설에서 시험하였다. 그 결과, 방사선 선량률과 다이오드의 전류 사이에 양호한 선형적 함수 관계가 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서, 이들 실리콘 PIN 포토 다이오드들은 $\gamma$선 선량계를 설계하는데 적합하게 이용될 수 있을 것이다.
