초록
We designed, developed and characterized a multi-segmented tissue equivalent proportional (TEPC) counter for microdosimetry. Theenergy resolution of the multi-segmented TEPC was about 12% for 241Am 5.45 MeV alpha particles. The resolution was better than33% for a single un-segmented TEPC. A compact and low power consumption TEPC could be made by using digital pulse processor(DPP). We also successfully calibrated the TEPC by using 252Cf standard neutron source in Korea Research Institute of Standards andScience (KRISS). According to the results, the TEPC is useful for several application of radiation monitoring such as a neutron monitor,air crew monitor and space dosimeter.
