Abstract |
In this paper, CMOS image sensors were exposed to thermal neutrons observing an increase in the dark signal of many pixels. The effect was found to be similar to the damage caused by alpha particles irradiation. Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS) and SIMNRA simulation were used to confirm that the sensors contain boron in the insulation layers. The damage produced by thermal neutrons is explained as displacement damage caused by alpha particles and lithium-7 ions in the silicon active volume of the sensors after boron-10 thermal neutron capture. |

Abstract |
We present the development of a system for the detection of ionizing radiation based on the Omnivision OV5647 Commercial Off The Shelf image sensor. The data is read and processed in real-time using a Raspberry Pi 3 computer. The amount of charge and geometrical characteristics of the cluster of pixels exited when a particle interacts with the sensor is recorded and used to identify the type of incoming particle, distinguishing between alpha particles and X-ray or gamma photons. The software was programmed in C using the OpenCV library. The system was tested with 137Cs and 241Am radiation sources. |

Abstract
In this paper we analyse the response of two different Commercial Off The shelf CMOS image sensors as particle detectors. Sensors were irradiated using X-ray photons, gamma photons, beta particles and alpha particles from diverse sources. The amount of charge produced by different particles, and the size of the spot registered on the sensor are compared, and analysed by an algorithm to classify them. For a known incident energy spectrum, the employed sensors provide a dose resolution lower than microGray, showing their potentials in radioprotection, area monitoring, or medical applications. |
