Abstract
In this work we study the response of floating gate (FG) ionizing radiation sensors to X-ray radiation with different quanta energies and different doses. Single cell sensors and array-type sensors were irradiated with X-rays of different wavelength. The calibration of the absorbed by the FG sensors dose was performed using LiFo electron paramagnetic resonance dosimeters.
