An in-situ study of Hall sensors based on singlelayered graphene in neutron fluxes of a nuclear reactor to the fluence of 1.5e20 n/sq,m was conducted. The sensitivity of the sensors to the magnetic field remained stable throughout the experiment, while the resistance changes correlated with the increase in sample temperature due to radiation heating. The experiment confirmed the theoretical expectations regarding the high stability of graphene sensors to neutron irradiation. Necessary further improvement of sensor technology to optimize their characteristics, as well as radiation testing to determine the maximum permissible neutron fluence.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
