Schröder, T. Schmitz] Commercial memory chips offer a simple approach for the detector of a personal neutron dosemeter. The basics of the detection of the ionising radiation are given in combination with a schematic layout of the chips and some correlated unwanted radiation effects. Experiments aimed at testing the characteristics of the chips as proper radiation detection devices are presented. Devices had been made with a 4 kbit, and 64 kbit static memory chip, a 1 Mbit dynamic memory chip and some gallium arsenide diodes in neutron and photon fields. The results allow some answers for questions like: How is the shape of the spectra correlated with the flat geometry of the detector? What can be done to make the system more sensitive? How good are the results compared with measurements with a TEPC in the same radiation field? Finally design criteria for an optimal chip are given, which can in principle be realised with advanced commercially available static memory chips.
