How Tungsten Radiation Detector Work

Due to its high density and excellent absorption radiation, tungsten alloy can be used to produced into tungsten radiation detector. Nuclear radiation is not easy to quantify properly. Tungsten radiation detection is always a multi-step, highly indirect process. For example, in a scintillation detector, incident radiation excites a florescence material that de-excites by emitting photons of light. The light is focused onto the photocathode of a photomultiplier tube that triggers an electron avalanche. The electron shower produces an electrical pulse that activates a meter read by the operator. Not surprisingly, the quantitative relationship between the amount of radiation actually emitted and the reading on the meter is a complex function of many factors -- factors that may only be controlled within a laboratory.
