The photoelectric device of a scintillation dosimeter converts photons produced by radiation into an electrical signal.Its features directly determine the overall performance of the dosimeter.For a plastic scintillation fiber dosimeter(PSFD)with a current readout mode,sys-tematic studies of the stability and light-dose response were performed for the photomultiplier tube(PMT),silicon photomultiplier(SiPM),avalanche photodiode(APD),and photodiode(PD).The temperature stability,long-term stability,repeatability,signal-to-noise ratio(SNR),and current dose response of the PSFD with the abovemen-tioned photoelectric devices were studied using a pulsed LED light source and the Small Animal Radiation Therapy platform.An exponential relationship between the dark/net current and temperature was obtained for all the devices.It is shown that the APD is the most sensitive device to temperature,with a current dependence on temperature reaching 6.5％℃-1 at room temperature,whereas for the other devices this dependence is always＜0.6％℃-1.In terms of long-term stability,the net current of PD can change by up to 4％when working continuously for 8 h and 2％when working intermittently for 32 h,whereas for the other devices,the changes are all＜1％.For the dose response,the PMT and SiPM exhibit excellent linear responses and SNRs within the range of 0.1-60 Gy/min.For the PSFD with a current readout mode,the perfor-mance of the PMT and SiPM is concluded to be better than that of the other devices in the study.In particular,the SiPM,which has a compact size,low bias voltage,and antimagnetic interference,has great advantages for further applications.
