Indium gallium phosphorus (InGaP) solar cells can be applied as a pn junction type thin film solid-state detection for not only γ-rays and X-rays, but also low-energy electron beams and α-rays such as short-range. In this study, the InGaP solar cell covered over a B converter is reported to the detection behavior of neutron flux from the results of radiation-induced current characteristics in a neutron irradiation test.
