Alcalde Bessia, F., D. Flandre, N. André, J. Irazoqui, M. Pérez, M. Gómez Berisso, and J. Lipovetzky. "Fully-Depleted SOI MOSFET Sensors in Accumulation Mode for Total Dose Measurement." In 2018 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference Proceedings (NSS/MIC), 1–3. 2018 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference Proceedings (NSS/MIC)., 2018. Abstract: Fully Depleted Silicon-on-Insulator (FD-SOI) transistors fabricated with a custom process in UniversitÃ© Catholique de Louvain (UCL) were irradiated with X-rays using an Elekta Synergy radiotherapy linear accelerator. I-V curves of FD-SOI are sensitive to charges produced in the buried oxide (BOX) by ionizing radiation, so it is possible to use these devices as radiation dosimeters. In this work, we evaluated the use of thick BOX back-gate transistors for Total Ionizing Dose (TID) measurement using different bias conditions and we obtained a maximum sensitivity of 191 mV/Gy for devices operating in accumulation mode.

Mateos, H., J. Lipovetzky, F. Alcalde Bessia, M. Perez, P. Cappagli, and M. Gomez Berisso. "Characterization of sensors and design of an embedded photodetectors array for beam profile measurements in radiotherapy." In 2017 Eight Argentine Symposium and Conference on Embedded Systems (CASE), 1–6. 2017 Eight Argentine Symposium and Conference on Embedded Systems (CASE)., 2017. Abstract: In this work, the dosimetric performance of several Commercial Of The Shelf photodiodes was studied. They were tested against gamma rays from a teletherapy source and were characterized with the aim of building a one-dimensional array of dosimeters able to measure the the spatial distribution of dose in a radiotherapy irradiation field. An embedded system comprising an array of 40 photodiodes and its acquisition electronics was built and tested. The dose resolution of each detector was 0.06 cGy and the spatial resolution of the system 0.5 cm.
