Progress in the development of neutron imaging
facilities requires more sophisticated and advanced tools for high
resolution and efficient neutron detection. This paper reports on
the evaluation of CMOS Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor (MAPS)
technology as a neutron detector. The sensor HEPAPS4, which
was originally designed for high energy physics applications,
was coated with two types of conversion material. The 6LiF
converter is suitable for the detecting thermal neutrons, while
the polyethylene converter is used for the tracking fast neutrons.
The results showed that such a technology is suitable for the
detection of both fast and thermal neutrons.
