Application of the Electret in Alpha Radiation Sensor to Measure the Concentration of Radon in Selected Ambient Conditions

A novel electret sensor, made from a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) foil, is proposed for monitoring of radon concentration in closed spaces. A triode air system was implemented to form the electret foil. In order to calibrate the electret sensor, the ionization chamber with the electret embedded at...
