Panasonic neutron sensitive phosphor = Li2B4O7– responds to thermal neutrons– responds to photons and betas– has a very different photon energy response
characteristics than CaSO4

• UD-802– Uses nLi2nB4O7
– Non-photon response may include beta• UD-812
– Uses 7Li211B4O7
– Non-photon response is essentially all neutron

• Filtration is designed for perpendicular radiation– Scattered neutrons that make it behind the
filters will confound any difference in responses
– Use a Cd fence around the badge to stop unfiltered thermal neutrons from getting to the elements

• UD-802/UD-809 dosimeters irradiated at PNNL. Rotating phantom
• Response/dose• Albedo response is decreased• Response looks more moderated
