AbstraktAbstract

The key aims of the project is to improve the safe use of nuclear technology by the 1) Development of a radiation detectors for detection and separation of charged and neutral particles in harsh environmental conditions as found around fusion reactors. This shall be achieved by the innovative combination of 4H-SiC with cutting-edge hybrid pixel detectors. 2) Develop methodology and assess the capability of the device for neutron and radiation dosimetry with focus on nuclear energy, medical irradiation facilities and space. This aims will be achieved by employing cutting-edge hybrid pixel detectors (Timepix and Timepix3) for the first time combined with the highly promising 4H-SiC as a sensor material. Therefore, the project brings together leading experts of Timepix(3) data analysis methodology and readout electronics development (IEAP CTU), pixelated SiC sensor fabrication (Bratislava), and sensor characterization and application in nuclear safety (CEA Cadarache).
