A three-dimensional electronic detector array consisting of an active-matrix readout configuration has been designed. The array comprises 22,325 submillimeter size photodiodes isotropically distributed within a 20 cm diameter semi-spherical volume of water equivalent material. For initial testing, one AM pixel, a flat array and a layer of semi-spherical electronic detector has been constructed. Each AM pixel consist of a 1 µF capacitor, a NX7002AK MOSFET (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor) and a BPW34 Photodiode. The flat array consists in 25 pixels distributed in 5 rows and 5 columns with a 2 cm separation between detectors. Experimental tests of linear response, dose rate dependence and depth dose percentage using a detector were compared with the ideal calculated data giving an error of less than 2%. The results of profiles with the flat matrix built gave a percentage difference with respect to the data of the commissioning of the machine of less than 5%. The layer of semi- spherical electronic consist of 135 consists of 135 BPW34S photodiodes distributed in a 12 cm diameter of the semi-spherical volume. Furthermore, a quality assurance plan for a 6-field 6-MV intracranial treatment was generated to check the array’s response. The array was dose calibrated using 20 x 20 cm2 parallel-opposed 6 MV photon beams from a Varian 2100 C/D linear accelerator and the integrated voltage from each photodiode was matched to the calculated dose from a treatment planning software for that photodiode location. Data analysis resulted in a percent dose difference between the measured and calculated dose of < 5%.
