Energy and fluence monitors are recommended for D-D and D-T neutrons. Neutron flux density spectra were determined for extended samples using the foil activation and physical integration methods. The unfolding method was checked by TOF and pulse height response spectrometers. Signal-to-background ratio was optimized for D-D gas cell neutron sources. Results show that the contribution of Coulomb breakup neutrons from the beam stop materials to the background is dominant at incident deuteron energies below 10 MeV.
