  • Abstract
    We present a two-step method for a high-resolution neutron area detector in which a metal foil with a high absorption cross section acts as a neutron to charged particle converter. After the foil is activated, the neutron field information is transferred from the converter foil to an imaging device by autoradiography. This two-step process using a storage photostimulable phosphor avoids interferences from non-neutron radiation found in the radiation field.
