✦ Synopsis


Expenmental results on the mvestlgatlon of sensltlve elements made of 'OB-ennched boron carbide films and designed for neutron detection are described The amorphous and crystallme films are deposited onto a heated sapphire substrate with a pulse-penodlc laser The samples are irradiated both by thermal and fast neutrons m a nuclear reactor A posslbkty exists of gammg integral flows up to 3 x lOI n/cm' The electnc conductlvlty of the samples 1s measured dunng the n=radlatlon Measurements of neutron fields of vanous nuclear plants with sensors made of germannun and slhcon doped by l"B have also been carned out The selection of the base matenal and the concentration of 'OB lmpunty allows the efficiency of neutron detection and measurement urlth the donmeter to be vaned These neutron doslmeters possess memory and can be used as wtnesses of unusual situations m vanous nuclear power plants
