J-PARCに設置されたSENJU回折計に増設するためのコンパクトな2次元シンチレータ中性子検出器を開発した。本検出器では設置部の空間制約に対応するため、オリジナルと同様の有感面積(256$$times$$256mm)とピクセル分解能(4$$times$$4mm)を保持しつつ、奥行き170mm(従来比40%減)へ再設計し製作した。また、新開発のコンパレータボードを装填することでPMT印加電圧の低減と計数均一性を改善した。4台製作した増設用検出器はいずれも検出効率50-60% (2${AA}$)、$$^{60}$$Coガンマ感度1$$times$$10$$^{-5}$$、計数均一性3-6%であり良好な性能を有することを確認した。

Two-dimensional neutron detectors were developed for the extension of SENJU time-of-flight Laue single crystal neutron diffractometer in J-PARC MLF. The detectors are to be installed at the additional detector bank for the SENJU instrument. The detector module is made based on ZnS scintillator and wavelength-shifting fiber technology, where each detector module maintains a neutron-sensitive area of 256$$times$$256 mm with a pixel size of 4$$times$$4 mm. To meet the tight space limitation in the instrument, the detector was designed as compact as possible. The detector has a depth of 170 mm, which is about 40% smaller than that of the original SENJU detector. All four produced detectors exhibited similar detector performances: detection efficiency 50-60% for 2-${AA}$ neutron, $$^{60}$$Co gamma-ray sensitivity 1$$times$$10$$^{-5}$$, count uniformity 3-6%.
