摘要
We use Monte-Carlo simulation method to investigate several factors influencing detection efficiency of neutron detector. We have simulated the effect of crystal materials (ZnS [1], LiI [2] and CaF2 [3]) on incident neutron flux and deposition energy. The result reveals that more energy deposited in the LiI (lithium iodide) scintillation crystal materials. And we explored the effect of the neutron source energy change on the detection efficiency of the scintillator. The simulation results show that the detection efficiency of the scintillation detector is gradually increased with the source energy increasing. These results will be beneficial to the development and application of neutron detectors.
