“…In previous work [12,24] that compared the scintillation decay profiles of fast neutron versus thermal neutron induced events in standard CLYC crystals, there was found to be a slight difference in one of the slower components of light output in each case. In Ref.…”

“…This capability is due to the presence of 35 Cl in CLYC, enabling it to act as a fastneutron spectrometer through interactions such as 35 Cl(n, p) 35 S. This discovery was subsequently validated by independent experiments [10,11]. The advent of fast-neutron detection with CLYC enables tri-mode systems that can perform gamma-ray spectroscopy, thermal-neutron detection, and fast-neutron spectroscopy using a single detector.…”

“…However, classic fast neutron detectors often work at low energy range below several MeV, and most of the classic detector can hardly measure the energy, the direction, and the emission time of the original neutrons. So, new methods must be used to get above-mentioned information of neutrons [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10].…”

Objective A three-dimensional position-sensitive fast neutron spectrometer is designed to measure fast neutron spectrum over 10 MeV. Methods The detector consists of a 16 × 16 mutually perpendicular plastic scintillation fiber array coupled to 2 × 2 Hamamatsu H8500C position-sensitive photomultiplier tubes by optical fibers. The fiber array is fabricated with 0.5 mm × 3 mm fibers and 3-mm square fibers. Results Due to the combined application of different sizes of fibers, the detector can broaden energy dynamic range and meanwhile have good detection efficiency. The method of the combined application of different sizes of plastic fibers in the array may provide a solution to measure wider energy range of solar neutrons. Conclusion In this paper, we used FLUKA to simulate the performance of the detector model and report the results of experimental studies with neutrons from a pulsed D-T neutron.
