Title:
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR REAL-TIME DETERMINATION OF CHARACTERISTICS OF RADIO-CHROMIC FILMS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/138309
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
System for real-time determination of characteristics of radio-chromic films, comprising: - one or more transmission optical fibers (2), adapted to transport an optical signal emitted by a light source (1) located at one end of said one or more transmission optical fibers ( 2 ); - one or more collection optical fibers (4), adapted to transport the optical signal towards a measuring and processing system (5, 6) for measuring and processing said optical signal, located at one end of said one or more collection optical fibers ( 4 ); - an optical coupler (7) adapted to couple said one or more transmission optical fibers (2) and said one or more collection optical fibers (4) in an optical cable (8); - an optical backscattering/reflection system (10) adapted to: - house one end of said optical cable (8) opposite to that of said optical signal source (1) and measuring and processing system (5, 6); - house a radio-chromic film (3) of the type sensitive to ionizing radiations, so that it is hit by an optical signal transported by said one or more transmission optical fibers (2) and emits an optical signal towards said one or more collection optical fibers (4); - receive ionizing radiation (1) and convey it onto the area of said radio-chromic film (3) hit by said optical signal, simultaneously with said optical signal emission.
