Abstrakt: For evaluating neutron optical devices, a twodimensional (2D) detector based on a neutron scintillator with wavelength-shifting fibers has been developed at RIKEN. We have investigated a ZnS(Ag)+LiF and a Li glass plate as neutron scintillators with the coding technique for realizing the large sensitive area of 50 × 50 mm². After fabricating the 2D detector, its performance was tested using cold neutrons at JAERI. As a result, a spatial resolution of ∼1.0 mm was obtained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
