Camera nuclear-radiation sensor: part I

in electronic engineering, Python, R, radioactivity / with 3 comments /

In previous posts I've described a radioactivity detector based on a photodiodes. Image sensors in cameras use photoelements too, so I think that they could be also used to detect radioactivity. At this moment i didn't success in this , nevertheless...

Weird arrays in C

in C and C plus plus, crappy code / with No comments /

Recently I've saw quite strange way to create an array in C. I will describe it bellow - looks quite interesting! Let's assume we have an array given bellow: int myArray[4]; We could rework it, so that each element is declared separately: int myArray0; int myArray1; int myArray2; ...

Semiconductor nuclear-radiation sensor: part III

in electronic engineering, Python, R, radioactivity / with No comments /

In this post I will present a new hardware version of my sensor, older versions are described in part I and part II. In comparison to the previous one, sensitivity is roughly x10 more sensitive. In previous version, tin foil window for photodiodes...

Semiconductor nuclear-radiation sensor: part II

in electronic engineering, Python, R, radioactivity / with 3 comments /

There are many ways to measure radioactivity level, semiconductor detectors sense interactions between ionizing radiation and p-n junction. Because in hobbyist area most popular are Geiger-Muller based detectors (in short: not a semiconductor but lamp...
