ADDITIONAL PRODUCT INFORMATION
The measured spectrum of an AmBe fast-neutron source with the B7-Mignon Diamond Detector at room temperature, 100°C and 175°C shows the stable behaviour of the detector.
The spectrum is dominated by elastic scattering of the neutron on the Carbon nuclei. The 12C(n,α)9Be reaction gives its characteristic distribution.
The rate capability is defined by the sensing volume of the detector. The standard configuration uses two diamond sensors, and the detection efficiency of fast neutrons is 2%.
