Abstract
Monitoring the Percentage Depth-Dose distribution (PDD) is an essential phase of beam quality control protocols in proton therapy. The scientific community is exploring innovative techniques for more precise PDD assessment, intending to apply them to high-intensity beam dosimetry. In this context, the progress made in the framework of the PRAGUE (Proton RAnGe measure Using silicon carbidE) project will be presented. The project’s purpose was the development of a real-time multilayer silicon carbide (SiC) detector, able to reconstruct the PDD of 30–150 MeV proton beams over a wide intensity range (106–1014 pps). This contribution describes the I-V (current vs. voltage) and C-V (capacitance vs. voltage) characterization of 80 SiC devices. The detectors’ stability and linearity are also introduced.
