摘要
Flash memory chip has been modified to serve as a sensitive solid state neutron detector. A dielectric layer used in the manufacture of the memory chip known as BPSG (borophosphosilicate glass) contains boron and when boron used in this layer is enriched B-10 a sensitive neutron detector is born.
