Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of detector technology, and in particular to an alpha particle detector. Background Art

[0002] In the field of nuclear energy and in the detection of radioactive materials, alpha particle spectrometers play a vital role. They are widely used to monitor environmental radiation levels and analyze radioactive materials. However, existing alpha particle spectrometer technology has some limitations.

[0003] The alpha particle energy spectrum detectors on the market mainly include PIPS (ion implanted silicon semiconductor) detectors, gold silicon surface barrier detectors and CZT / CdTe (cadmium zinc telluride / cadmium telluride) detectors. These detectors usually need to be electromagnetically shielded to reduce external electromagnetic interference, and metal packaging or metal shell packaging is generally used to achieve this purpose. Figure 1 As shown, in the packaging structure of the common α-particle energy spectrum detector on the market, the cathode surface electrode 01 of the detector component is connected to the shell 02 through a conductive film 03, and the anode signal is connected to the connector 04 through a wire, a spring, a shrapnel, etc.

[0004] In this prior art, a conductive film is used between the detector and the housing to lead out the signal. The thinnest thickness of the conductive film that can be processed into a designed pattern is 0.3mm. The thickness of the metal housing is about 0.5mm, so the minimum distance between the detector surface and the radiation source is 0.8mm. However, alpha particles are severely attenuated in the air. The range of 5MeV alpha particles in the air is only 35mm. Through modeling and Monte Carlo calculation, compared with 241 The emission of the Am radiation source surface is attenuated by 21% when the distance in the air is 1mm. Therefore, the 0.8mm distance in the prior art will lead to serious attenuation, affecting the detection accuracy and detector efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0060] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an alpha particle detector, including a shell 100, a detection assembly 200 and a connector 400. The shell 100 is provided with a detection opening, and the internal cavity of the shell 100 forms a receiving cavity, and the detection opening is connected to the receiving cavity. The detection assembly 200 is arranged in the receiving cavity, and the detection assembly 200 includes a stacked anode layer 220, a dielectric layer 230 and a cathode layer 240, the dielectric layer 230 is arranged on a side surface of the anode layer 220 close to the detection opening, and the cathode layer 240 is arranged on a side surface of the dielectric layer 230 close to the detection opening. The connector 400 is connected to the shell 100, and the cathode layer 240 and the anode layer 220 are both electrically connected to the connector 400. The cathode layer 240 is electrically connected to the connector 400 through the cathode lead 270.

[0061] The alpha particle detector provided in the present application includes a housing 100, a detection assembly 200 and a connector 400. The detection assembly 200 is located in the housing 100, and the connector 400 is connected to the housing 100. The detection assembly 200 includes a stacked anode layer 220, a dielectric layer 230 and a cathode layer 240, and the cathode layer 240 is electrically connected to the connector 400 through a cathode lead 270. In the present application, a stable and direct signal transmission path is provided. This design reduces the loss and interference of the signal during the transmission process, improves the response speed and measurement accuracy of the detector, and ensures the accuracy of the measurement results.

[0062] In addition, the cathode signal is led out by cathode lead 270 instead of conductive film in the prior art, which can provide a structural basis for reducing the distance between the detector surface and the radiation source, help reduce the attenuation of alpha particles in the air, and improve the sensitivity and accuracy of the detector.

[0063] The following will describe in detail the various parts of the alpha particle detector provided in the embodiment of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0064] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the alpha particle detector provided by the present application includes a housing 100 , a detection assembly 200 and a connector 400 . The detection assembly 200 is disposed in the housing 100 , and the connector 400 is connected to the housing 100 .

[0065] The housing 100 is an internal hollow structure, and a detection opening is provided in the housing 100. The internal cavity forms a receiving cavity, and the detection opening is connected to the receiving cavity. The detection opening can be provided on one wall of the housing 100. The detection opening is a channel for the detector to interact with the external environment, allowing alpha particles to enter and be detected by the detection assembly 200. The size and shape of the detection opening are optimized according to the application requirements and detection efficiency of the detector to ensure the maximum reception of alpha particles while reducing unnecessary interference to the inside of the detector.

[0066] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the housing 100 includes a first housing 110 and a second housing 120 connected to each other, wherein the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 are buckled to form a receiving cavity inside. Optionally, the detection opening is provided on a side wall of the first housing 110, and the end of the first housing 110 opposite to the detection opening is an open end, and the second housing 120 can be connected to the open end to be arranged opposite to the detection opening. It should be noted that the above description of the structure of the housing 100 is only an exemplary description, and the structure of the housing 100 can be various, and the present application does not make any special limitation on this.

[0067] The housing 100 is the outer protective structure of the alpha particle detector and is made of durable materials to provide solid protection for the sensitive detection components 200 inside. The housing 100 can be made of metal materials, which not only plays a protective role but also has an electromagnetic shielding effect. Optionally, the material of the housing 100 may include 304 stainless steel, 316 stainless steel, etc., but is not limited thereto.

[0068] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the detection assembly 200 is arranged in the housing 100, and includes an anode layer 220, a dielectric layer 230 and a cathode layer 240 that are stacked. The dielectric layer 230 is arranged on the side surface of the anode layer 220 close to the detection opening, and the cathode layer 240 is arranged on the side surface of the dielectric layer 230 close to the detection opening. Optionally, the materials of the anode layer 220 and the cathode layer 240 include but are not limited to at least one of In / Au / Pt / Cu / Ti / Al or a composite electrode material composed of other metals. The anode layer 220 and the cathode layer 240 can be an electrode layer composed of a single metal or a composite electrode layer composed of multiple metals. Preferably, the materials of the anode layer 220 and the cathode layer 240 are different. The dielectric layer 230 is located between the anode layer 220 and the cathode layer 240. The dielectric layer 230 can effectively stop alpha particles and make them lose energy. This interaction generates a large number of electron-hole pairs. The material of the dielectric layer 230 may include semiconductor materials such as cadmium zinc telluride, cadmium telluride, and ion-implanted silicon, but is not limited thereto.

[0069] In some embodiments of the present application, the alpha particle detector further includes a sealing layer 300, which is sealed and connected between the detection assembly 200 and the housing 100. The sealing layer 300 can be arranged at the detection opening of the housing 100. Specifically, the sealing layer 300 can be connected between the side surface of the detection assembly 200 close to the detection opening and the shell wall of the housing 100 provided with the detection opening, and can also be connected between the side of the detection assembly 200 and the side wall of the housing 100. Preferably, except for the side surface of the detection assembly 200 away from the detection opening, the other surfaces are connected with the shell wall of the housing 100 by the sealing layer 300 to ensure the sealing effect and the three-proof (moisture-proof, dust-proof, and salt-fog-proof) effect. The material of the sealing layer 300 may include one or more of silicone, rubber, fluororubber, silicone rubber, etc., but is not limited thereto. The sealing layer 300 can be directly embedded in the corresponding position of the housing 100, or can be formed by coating glue at the corresponding position of the housing 100 by a coating process.

[0070] In the prior art, since the cathode surface signal must be connected to the shell 02 through the conductive film 03, the cathode electrode must be a conductive material throughout. The conductive film is formed by dispersing conductive particles (such as copper, graphite, etc.) in glue (such as silicone) and curing them. The sealing effect of the conductive film is general, and it is impossible to achieve a seal between the cathode surface and the shell. In the present application, the use of the sealing layer 300 significantly improves the sealing performance of the detector, ensures a close connection between the detection component 200 and the shell 100, and effectively prevents the adverse effects of external environmental factors on the performance of the detector. This not only enhances the three-proof (moisture-proof, dust-proof, and salt spray-proof) performance of the detector, but also simplifies the maintenance and cleaning process, which helps to maintain the long-term stability and reliability of the detector.

[0071] The connector 400 is connected to the housing 100, and the cathode layer 240 and the anode layer 220 are both electrically connected to the connector 400 to achieve signal transmission. The connector 400 can be connected to the outside of the housing 100, and the cathode layer 240 and the anode layer 220 can be connected to the connector 400 through some conductive structures. The connector 400 may include a wire, SMA (Subminiature version A), BNC (Bayonet Neill-Concelman, bayonet connector), etc., but is not limited thereto.

[0072] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the cathode layer 240 is electrically connected to the connector 400 through the cathode lead 270. The material of the cathode lead 270 may include metal or composite metal, which may be a metal wire composed of a single metal, or a metal wire composed of a plurality of metals. For example, it may be a copper wire, an aluminum wire, a gold wire, or a metal wire with other material layers plated thereon. The cathode layer 240 may be provided with a cathode welding point 241, and one end of the cathode lead 270 may be connected to the cathode layer 240 through the cathode welding point 241. The other end of the cathode lead 270 may be connected to the connector 400 indirectly or directly.

[0073] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the detection assembly 200 also includes a flexible substrate 290, which is arranged on a side surface of the cathode layer 240 close to the detection opening. A detection through hole is arranged in the center of the flexible substrate 290, and the detection through hole is arranged opposite to the detection opening. A conductive member 291 is also arranged on the flexible substrate 290, and the conductive member 291 connects the cathode layer 240 and the cathode lead 270 to lead the signal of the cathode layer 240 to the connector 400 through the cathode lead 270. The thickness of the flexible substrate 290 is not greater than 0.3 mm. Further, the thickness of the flexible substrate 290 is not greater than 0.1 mm. The flexible substrate 290 can be connected to the cathode layer 240 by a bonding process, such as connecting to the cathode layer 240 by epoxy glue or silicone glue.

[0074] In this embodiment, the thickness of the flexible substrate 290 can be less than 0.1 mm, so that the minimum distance between the detector surface and the radiation source is 0.6 mm, which is 0.2 mm lower than the prior art. This design can greatly reduce the attenuation of α particles in the air and improve the detection sensitivity and accuracy of the detector. In addition, the flexible substrate 290 also has a certain buffering performance, which can play a certain protective role for the α particle detector.

[0075] When the detection assembly 200 further includes a flexible substrate 290 , the sealing layer 300 may be disposed between the flexible substrate 290 and the housing 100 .

[0076] In some embodiments, the material of the conductive member 291 may include solder, conductive glue, etc. The conductive glue may include conductive silver glue, conductive carbon glue, etc., and the solder may include tin-containing solder, indium-containing solder, bismuth-containing solder, etc. The conductive member 291 may structurally include one or more of a through-hole pad provided on the flexible substrate 290, a conductive circuit, and a lead pad provided on the back side of the flexible substrate 290 (a side surface close to the cathode layer 240). The conductive circuit connects the through-hole pad and the lead pad. When the cathode layer 240 is led out, the cathode layer 240 and the through-hole pad may be interconnected using a conductive lead, and the lead pad may be connected to the connector through the cathode lead.

[0077] like Figure 6 As shown, in a specific embodiment, a conductive through hole is provided on the flexible substrate 290, and a conductive member 291 is located in the conductive through hole, and the conductive member 291 is in contact with the cathode layer 240. Furthermore, a conductive lead may be provided on the flexible substrate 290, and the conductive lead may be connected to the conductive member 291 to lead the cathode signal to the back side of the flexible substrate 290 (the side surface connected to the cathode layer 240).

[0078] In another specific embodiment, Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the conductive member 291 is located on a side surface of the flexible substrate 290 away from the cathode layer 240, and the conductive member 291 is connected to the cathode layer 240 through a conductive line. In this embodiment, the cathode signal can also be led to the back of the flexible substrate 290 through some conductive structures, and the specific lead-out method is not limited in this application. The material of the conductive member 291 can be conductive glue.

[0079] Optionally, the material of the flexible substrate 290 may include polyimide or polyester film. For example, the material of the flexible substrate 290 includes polyimide, and may specifically be a FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) board.

[0080] Optionally, the detection assembly 200 provided in the present application further includes a substrate 210, which is disposed on a side of the anode layer 220 away from the detection opening. The material of the substrate 210 may include one or more of ceramics, copper frame, etc., but is not limited thereto.

[0081] like Figure 2 As shown, the cathode lead 270 can be connected to a side of the substrate 210 away from the cathode layer 240 (hereinafter collectively referred to as the back side of the substrate 210), and then connected to the connector 400. Further, the detection component 200 also includes a cathode pad 211, which is provided on the substrate 210, and the cathode lead 270 is connected to the substrate 210 through the cathode pad 211.

[0082] In this embodiment, by connecting the cathode lead 270 to the back of the substrate 210, the packaging effect of the alpha particle detector can be significantly improved. This connection method effectively increases the proportion of the effective detection area of ​​the alpha particle detector in the total area, thereby improving the packaging efficiency. Higher packaging efficiency means that a larger detection area can be achieved without increasing the overall size of the detector, thereby enhancing the detection capability. Moreover, this back connection design helps to reduce the size of the alpha particle detector, because the cathode lead 270 occupies the back space of the substrate 210, reducing the demand for side space. The more compact alpha particle detector design is easy to integrate into small devices and also helps to reduce production costs. Furthermore, smaller-sized detectors have a wider range of adaptability and can be used in portable devices, space-constrained industrial detection equipment, and scientific research instruments with special requirements for size. Without sacrificing performance, by improving packaging efficiency and reducing size, material and production costs are also reduced, making the detector more economical and practical.

[0083] In addition, the optimized packaging design also enhances the structural stability of the alpha particle detector and reduces the impact of external shock or vibration on its performance. This not only simplifies the assembly and maintenance process of the alpha particle detector, but also improves its reliability and durability.

[0084] Specifically in one embodiment, the cathode lead 270 includes a first cathode lead 271 and a second cathode lead 272; the first cathode lead 271 connects the cathode layer 240 and the cathode pad 211. The second cathode lead 272 connects the cathode pad 211 and the housing 100, or the second cathode lead 272 directly connects the cathode pad 211 and the connector 400. Figure 2 As shown, optionally, the cathode pad 211 is disposed on a side surface of the substrate 210 away from the detection opening (the back side of the substrate 210). The first cathode lead 271 can be routed from the side of the detection component 200 and then connected to the cathode pad 211. It should be noted that when the detection component 200 includes a flexible substrate 290, one end of the first cathode lead 271 can be electrically connected to the back side of the flexible substrate 290, and the cathode signal led to the back side of the flexible substrate 290 can be further led out.

[0085] In some embodiments of the present application, the detection assembly 200 further includes a cushion layer 250, which is disposed on a surface of the anode layer 220 on a side away from the detection opening. In this embodiment, the substrate 210 is disposed on a side of the cushion layer 250 away from the detection opening. The cushion layer 250 can reduce the impact of external vibration on the detector signal. The material of the cushion layer 250 includes one or more soft vibration-damping materials such as silicone, rubber, silicone gel, silicone rubber, etc., but is not limited thereto.

Further, the detection component 200 also includes an anode pad 212, which is provided on the substrate 210, and the anode lead 280 is connected to the substrate 210 through the anode pad 212.

The anode pad 212 is provided on a side surface of the substrate 210 away from the detection opening (the back side of the substrate 210).

[0088] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the detection component 200 further includes a protective layer 260, which is disposed on the cathode layer 240 or the side of the flexible substrate 290 close to the detection opening, and the protective layer 260 is selected from one or more of the three-proof layer 261, the light-shielding layer 262, and the wipe-resistant layer 263. It should be noted here that the number of layers of the three-proof layer 261, the light-shielding layer 262, and the wipe-resistant layer 263 included in the protective layer 260 is not limited, and the number of layers of the three-proof layer 261, the light-shielding layer 262, and the wipe-resistant layer 263 included therein can be one layer, two layers, three layers or more layers, and the number of layers of each layer can be the same or different.

[0089] It should be noted that the protection layer 260 may also be disposed on the side of the detection component 200 , that is, all around, to protect the detection component 200 as a whole.

[0090] The main function of the three-proof layer 261 is to provide protection against moisture, dust and salt spray, ensuring the performance and reliability of the detector under harsh environmental conditions. The material of the three-proof layer 261 includes organic materials, and the organic materials include polytetrafluoroethylene and / or polyimide, but are not limited thereto.

[0091] The main purpose of the light shielding layer 262 is to block external light sources, reduce the interference of stray light on the performance of the detector, and ensure the stability and accuracy of the detector under lighting conditions. The material of the light shielding layer 262 includes one or more of metal, titanium dioxide, and thermoplastic polymer light shielding materials, but is not limited thereto. Specifically, the material of the light shielding layer 262 may include metals such as nickel (Ni), chromium (Cr), platinum (Pt), gold (Au), silver (Ag), zinc (Zn), etc., or light shielding materials such as titanium dioxide, ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene).

[0092] The function of the wipe-resistant layer 263 is to provide a hard protection so that the detector surface can withstand routine cleaning and maintenance operations without damaging the performance of the detector. The material of the wipe-resistant layer 263 includes one or more of silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, hard metal and quartz, but is not limited thereto. It should be noted that when the wipe-resistant layer 263 itself has a light-shielding effect, the light-shielding layer 262 may not be provided. For example, when the wipe-resistant layer 263 is made of silicon carbide, it itself has a light-shielding effect, and the light-shielding layer 262 may not be provided.

[0093] Preferably, the three-proof layer 261, the light shielding layer 262 and the anti-wiping layer 263 can be made of low-density organic or inorganic materials, which helps to reduce the absorption of α particles, so that more α particles can reach the dielectric layer 230 of the detector, thereby improving the detection efficiency. The anti-wiping layer 263 is made of ceramics such as silicon carbide or corundum with a high Mohs hardness, which can withstand multiple cleaning and wiping, and the surface is wiped with acetone for 1,000 times without scratches.

[0094] The thickness of each layer of the three-proof layer 261, the light-shielding layer 262 and the anti-wiping layer 263 can be set according to actual needs. When the number of layers of the three-proof layer 261, the light-shielding layer 262 and the anti-wiping layer 263 included in the protective layer 260 is multiple, the total thickness of the three-proof layer 261 is 0.05-5μm, such as 0.1μm, 0.5μm, 1μm, 1.5μm, 2μm, 2.5μm, 3μm, 3.5μm, 4μm, 4.5μm, 5μm, but not limited to this; the total thickness of the light-shielding layer 262 is 0.04-2μm, such as 0.1μm, 0.5μm, 0.6μm, 0.7μm, 1μm, 1.1μm, 1.2μm, 1.3μm, 1.5μm, 1.8μm, 2μm, but not limited to; the total thickness of the wipe-resistant layer 263 is 0.02-2μm, such as 0.1μm, 0.5μm, 0.6μm, 0.7μm, 1μm, 1.1μm, 1.2μm, 1.3μm, 1.5μm, 1.8μm, 2μm, but not limited to.

[0095] Preferably, at least one of the three protective layers 261, the light shielding layer 262 and the anti-wiping layer 263 includes an organic layer. When the protective layer 260 includes an organic layer, at least one organic layer is disposed on the surface of the cathode layer 240 near the detection opening. In this embodiment, a soft organic layer is selected on the surface of the cathode layer 240 as a buffer layer, and other layers are formed on the organic layer, which can completely prevent cracking, film peeling and other problems caused by stress.

[0096] In a specific embodiment, the protective layer 260 includes a three-proof layer 261, a light shielding layer 262, and an anti-wiping layer 263 stacked in a direction away from the cathode layer 240. The thickness of the three-proof layer 261 is 0.05-5 μm; the thickness of the light shielding layer 262 is 0.04-2 μm; and the thickness of the anti-wiping layer 263 is 0.02-2 μm.

[0097] In another specific embodiment, the protective layer 260 includes a plurality of protective unit layers stacked together, and a single protective unit layer may include one or more of the three-proof layer 261, the light shielding layer 262, and the anti-wiping layer 263. The number of layers included in a single protective unit layer may be zero or one. When a single protective unit layer includes the three-proof layer 261, the distance between the three-proof layer 261 and the cathode layer 240 is the shortest. When the protective unit layer includes the three-proof layer 261, the light shielding layer 262, and the anti-wiping layer 263, the three-proof layer 261, the light shielding layer 262, and the anti-wiping layer 263 are stacked in sequence in a direction away from the cathode layer 240. In a single protective unit layer, the thickness of the three-proof layer 261 is 0.01-0.5 μm; the thickness of the light shielding layer 262 is 0.01-0.2 μm; and the thickness of the anti-wiping layer 263 is 0.005-0.1 μm.

[0098] For example, the protective layer 260 includes a plurality of protective unit layers, each of which includes a three-proof layer 261, a light shielding layer 262, and a wipe-resistant layer 263, wherein the three-proof layer 261, the light shielding layer 262, and the wipe-resistant layer 263 are sequentially stacked in a direction away from the cathode layer 240. For another example, the protective layer 260 includes a plurality of protective unit layers, wherein some of the protective unit layers include a three-proof layer 261, a light shielding layer 262, and a wipe-resistant layer 263, wherein the three-proof layer 261, the light shielding layer 262, and the wipe-resistant layer 263 are sequentially stacked in a direction away from the cathode layer 240. Some of the protective unit layers include only one or two of the three-proof layer 261, the light shielding layer 262, and the wipe-resistant layer 263, such as only the light shielding layer 262 and the wipe-resistant layer 263. Optionally, the protection unit layer including only the light shielding layer 262 and the wipe-resistant layer 263 may be the protection unit layer farthest from the cathode layer 240 in the protection layer 260 , which can reduce costs and improve economic benefits while enhancing the wipe-resistant performance of the detection component 200 .

[0099] Furthermore, the α particle detector further includes an elastic support member, which is disposed between the detection assembly 200 and the housing 100, specifically between the detection assembly 200 and the second housing 120, to support the detection assembly 200. The elastic support member can be made of elastic materials such as springs and silicone pads.

[0100] like Fig. 9As shown, the present application also provides an alpha particle detector, including a shell 100, a detection assembly 200 and a connector 400. The shell 100 is provided with a detection opening, the internal cavity of the shell 100 forms a receiving cavity, and the detection opening is connected to the receiving cavity. The detection assembly 200 is arranged in the receiving cavity, and the detection assembly 200 includes a stacked anode layer 220, a dielectric layer 230 and a cathode layer 240, the dielectric layer 230 is arranged on a side surface of the anode layer 220 close to the detection opening, and the cathode layer 240 is arranged on a side surface of the dielectric layer 230 close to the detection opening. The connector 400 is connected to the shell 100, and the cathode layer 240 and the anode layer 220 are both electrically connected to the connector 400. The detection assembly 200 further includes a flexible substrate 290, which is disposed on a side surface of the cathode layer 240 close to the detection opening, a detection through hole is disposed at the center of the flexible substrate 290, and the detection through hole is disposed opposite to the detection opening, and a conductive member 291 is also disposed on the flexible substrate 290, which connects the cathode layer 240 and the housing 100 to lead the signal of the cathode layer 240 to the connector 400 through the housing 100. The thickness of the flexible substrate 290 is not greater than 0.3 mm. Further, the thickness of the flexible substrate 290 is not greater than 0.1 mm.

[0101] In this embodiment, the thickness of the flexible substrate 290 can be less than 0.1 mm, so that the minimum distance between the detector surface and the radiation source is 0.6 mm, which is 0.2 mm lower than the prior art. This design can greatly reduce the attenuation of α particles in the air and improve the detection sensitivity and accuracy of the detector. In addition, the cathode signal is directly led out through the housing 100, which is simple in process and convenient in manufacturing, and helps to improve production efficiency.

[0102] The specific structure of the detection component 200 may refer to the α-particle detector in any of the above embodiments, such as further including a cushion layer 250 , a substrate 210 and other structures, which will not be described in detail here.

It should be noted that when the detection component 200 does not include the substrate 210, the preparation method may not include this step.

[0108] (4) The signal of the cathode layer 240 is led out through the cathode lead 270, and the signal of the anode layer 220 is led out through the anode lead 280. Specifically, the signals of the cathode layer 240 and the anode layer 220 can be led out through a wire bonding process or a conductive adhesive bonding process. For example, the signals of the cathode layer 240 and the anode layer 220 can be connected to the corresponding cathode pad 211 and anode pad 212 on the substrate 210 through the cathode lead 270 and the anode lead 280, respectively.

Embed a sealing layer 300 near the detection opening of the housing 100, and install the prepared detection assembly 200 into the housing 100.

[0112] (2) The cathode layer 240 signal and the anode layer 220 signal are further led out to the connector 400. For example, the anode pad 212 and the cathode pad 211 on the substrate 210 are connected to the connector 400 through corresponding leads.

[0113] (3) An elastic support member is placed between the detection assembly 200 and the housing 100. The structure and placement of the elastic support member can refer to the above content and will not be described in detail here.

[0114] (4) A through hole is opened on the second shell 120, and glue is filled into the inner cavity of the shell 100 through the through hole to improve the reliability of the α-particle detector.

Among them, the detection assembly 200 includes an anode layer 220, a dielectric layer 230, a cathode layer 240, a cushion layer 250, a protective layer 260 and a substrate 210. The cathode pad 211 and the anode pad 212 are arranged on the back of the substrate 210, and the signals of the cathode layer 240 and the anode layer 220 are respectively led to the back of the substrate 210 through the cathode lead 270 and the anode lead 280, and further led out to the connector 400. The protective layer 260 includes three anti-layers 261, a light shielding layer 262 and a scratch-resistant layer 263 which are stacked in sequence in a direction away from the cathode layer 240. Among them, the material of the three-proof layer 261 is polytetrafluoroethylene, the light-shielding layer 262 is Ni, and the wipe-resistant layer 263 is aluminum oxide. The thickness of the three-proof layer 261, the light-shielding layer 262 and the wipe-resistant layer 263 are shown in Table 1. The thickness of the sealing layer 300 is 0.5 mm, and the thickness of the shell 100 is 0.5 mm. The manufactured α particle detector was tested, and the test results are shown in Table 2.

[0123] Eligibility criteria: The greater the light shielding effect, the better. The greater the light shielding effect, the wider the environment in which the detector can be used.

[0164] Compared with Example 1, Example 2 has lower wipe resistance and salt spray effect than Example 1, while Example 3 has higher wipe resistance and salt spray effect than Example 1, which indicates that increasing the thickness of the wipe-resistant layer to a certain extent helps to improve the wipe resistance and salt spray effect of the device.
