Abstract

• The range of applications of epithermal neutron scattering experiments has been recently extended by the development of the Resonance Detector. In a Resonance Detector, resonant neutron absorption in an analyzer foil results in prompt emission of X- and 7rays which are detected by a photon counter. Several combinations of analyzer foils and photon detectors have been studied and tested over the years and best results have been obtained with the combination of a natural uranium and (i) Cadmium-Zinc-Tellu ride (CZT) semiconductor, (ii) Yttrium-Aluminum-Perovskite (YAP) scintillators. Here we compare the performance of the CZT semiconductor and YAP scintillator as Resonance Detector units. Two Resonance Detector prototypes made of natural uranium foil viewed by CZT and YAP were tested on the VESUVIO spectrometer at the ISIS spallation. neutron source. The results show that both YAP and CZT can be used to detect epithermal neutrons in the energy range from 1 up to 66eV. It was found that the signal-to- background ratio of the measurement can significantly be improved by raising the lower level discrimination threshold on the gamma energy to about 600keV. The advantages/disadvantages of the choice of a Resonance Detector based on YAP or CZT are discussed together with some potential applications. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. (literal)
