Summary:为探测0.1~50MeV低能电子脉冲束流的位置分布,研制基于国产厚型气体电子倍增器(Thick Gaseous Electron Multiplier,THGEM)的二维位置探测器,位置分辨要求好于200gm,灵敏面积为50mm×50mm。THGEM的孔径为150gm、孔间距400pm、厚度100gm。用Geant4模拟了薄膜窗厚度、空气层厚度等对电子透过率和横向扩散的影响。根据模拟结果,优化了探测器的结构和设计。并用能量为5.9keV的X射线源55Fe测试不同工作气体的增益,单层最大增益好于1×10^4,双层最大增益好于6×10^4,能量分辨率好于23%。
Bibliography:Background: The thick gaseous electron multiplier (THGEM) is homemade with the hole diameter of 150 μm, pitch of 400 μm, and thickness of 100μm. Purpose: A THGEM-based 2D position detector is developed for low energy electron detection. Methods: The influences of film's thickness, air-layer's thickness, etc., on the electron transfer efficiency and transverse diffusion were simulated by Geant4 and using the 5.9-keV X-rays, and the gas gain, energy resolution were measured in different gas mixtures. Results: According to the simulation results, the design and structure of the detector were optimized and the maximum gas gain of single and double layer THGEMs reached 1 × 10^4 and 6×10^4, respectively, and the energy resolution was higher than 23% for both single- and double-layer THGEMs. Conclusion: The spatial resolution is required less than 200μm in 50 mm×50 mm sensitive area.
