Radiation occurs in forms of rays and particles:j
12
Types of radiation
Charged particulate radiation: Fast electrons (β+, β-, e-)Heavy charged particles(ions; e.g. α, p+, fission products)
Uncharged radiation: Electromagnetic radiation(X-rays, gamma-rays)Neutrons(fast and slow neutrons)

§ The unit of radiation energy is electron volt (eV);§ 1 eV = kinetic energy gained by one electron when
accelerated through the potential difference of 1 V;§ Si unit: joule (J): 1 eV = 1,602*10-19 J§ The energy of X- or gamma-ray photon:

§ The radioactivity of a source is given by thefundamental law of radioactive decay:
§ Historical unit of radioactivity: curie (Ci);1 Ci = 3,7*1010 disintegrations/s (~activity of 1g 226Ra)§ SI unit: becquerel (Bq) = 1 disintegration per second
=> 1 Bq = 2,703*10-11 Ci§ NOTE: disintegration rate ≠ emission rate

§ Absorbed dose D is the mean energyabsorbed from any type of radiation perunit mass of the absorber.§ 1 gray (Gy) = 1 Joule/kg (=100 rad).
§ Dose equivalent H for a given type of radiationdescribes the biological damage created by radiation:
§ 1 sievert (Sv) (= 100 rem).§ Example: @Kumpula background gamma radiation

§ The operation off radiation detectors is based on theinteraction between the radiation to be detected andthe material of the radiation detector.§ The four major categories of radiation:
17
Radiation Interactions
Charged Particulate Radiations Uncharged RadiationsHeavy charged particles
(characteristic distance ~10-5 m)Neutrons
(characteristic length ~10-1 m)Fast electrons
(characteristic distance ~10-3 m)X-rays & gamma rays
(characteristic length ~10-1 m)Interact through Coulomb force ”Catastrophic” interactions, with
nuclei and electrons

§ The range of particles of certain energy is a uniquequantity in a specific absorber material.§ Conceptual experiment:
t = thickness of the absorber materialI0 = Intensity of the particle beamI = Intensity of the detected particle beamRm = mean range (most commonly used)Re = extrapolated range
19
Particle Range forheavy charged particles
§ Thus, the active thickness of energy dispersive radiationdetectors (i.e. measuring the particle energy) must be largerthan the particle range in the detector material.

§ In radiation spectroscopy, the object is to measurethe energy distribution of incident radiation.§ Charge is proportional to the energy of the radiation.§ The smaller the resolution R the better the detector
distinguishes radiations with close energies.§ The fluctuations result from drifts in detector
operation, random noise and statistical noise.

§ Radiation gradually destroys the detectormeasuring it.
§ Radiation damage is typically analyzedby measuring electrical characteristics ofthe detector.
§ In pn-junction semiconductor detectors,the most important characteristics areleakage current from current-voltage (IV)measurement and depletion voltage fromcapacitance-voltage (CV) measurement.
§ Here, you study irradiated and non-irradiated silicon detectors with probestation.

GENERAL LABORATORY SAFETY
• Do not use machinery without training.
• Always use the safety technology available.
• Materials storaging
• Chemicals and glues are stored in special air-conditionedcupboards.
• Tools and materials are stored in their own positions liketools walls and materials carousel.
• After usage

LABORATORY SAFETY, FUME HOOD
• Fume hood is safety technology which is used to protect humans fromharmful fumes and dust.
• Example: glueing
• Do not store anything on the fume hood.
• Keep the fume hood clean.
• If you need to leave materials to fume hood;
• Place materials so, that others can use the fume hood during preservation.
• Mark your samples.
• Keep the fume hood door closed.

LABORATORY SAFETY, CHEMICALS
• The mostly used chemicals in the instrumentation laboratory are IPA (Isopropyl alcohol) and acetone.
• IPA and acetone are kept in special bottles with air-locks because of their flammability.
• Widely used glues (e.g epoxy) are harmful to health
• Skin contact: Danger of severe allergic reactions and poisoning.
• Eye contact: Danger of permanent eye-damages.
• Inhalation of glue fumes:
‒ Short term exposure; respiratory tract irritation and headache.
‒ Long term exposure; Allergic reactions and brain damages.
• Glueing safety
• Carry out glueing in fume hood.
• Follow carefully the glue package instructions.
• Use gloves.
• Protect your eyes from glue spreads.
• Use disposable tools when possible.
• Put the glue waste to glue waste box in plastic bag.
• Dry the glued matters in fume hood with closed door.

LABORATORY SAFETY, SOLDERING
• Soldering irons tip temperatures are in level 300°C-500°C.Hold the soldering iron on a right way.
• After usage clean up and shut down the soldering irons.
• Set the soldering irons to their holders on a right way.
• Do not store anything on soldering station.

LABORATORY SAFETY, SOLDERING
• Soldering process releases VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) and possibly heavy metals (e.g lead) containing fume to air.
• Short term exposure; respiratory tract irritation, headache and allergy reactions
• Long term exposure; severe respiratory tract problems(e.g cancer and asthma), headache and allergy reactions.
• Soldering fumes are heavier than air. That is why special Fume Extraction Kit is needed to keep the soldering process safe.
• How to use the Fume Extraction Kit:
• Turn on the power from the switches 1 and 2.
• Turn on the power from the control panel 3. Adjust the fume intake power using – and + buttons.
• Maximum funnel distance D from the sample is 15cm.
