Neutron Interrogation Systems Using Pyroelectric Crystals And Methods Of Preparation Thereof
US Patent:
2012010, May 3, 2012
Filed:

International Classification:
H05H 3/06, H05H 3/00, H05H 15/00
US Classification:
376111, 376100, 376108
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, an apparatus includes a pyroelectric crystal, a deuterated or tritiated target, an ion source, and a common support coupled to the pyroelectric crystal, the deuterated or tritiated target, and the ion source. In another embodiment, a method includes producing a voltage of negative polarity on a surface of a deuterated or tritiated target in response to a temperature change of a pyroelectric crystal, pulsing a deuterium ion source to produce a deuterium ion beam, accelerating the deuterium ion beam to the deuterated or tritiated target to produce a neutron beam, and directing the ion beam onto the deuterated or tritiated target to make neutrons using a voltage of the pyroelectric crystal and/or an HGI surrounding the pyroelectric crystal. The directionality of the neutron beam is controlled by changing the accelerating voltage of the system. Other apparatuses and methods are presented as well.
Fabrication Of High Gradient Insulators By Stack Compression
US Patent:

Filed:

International Classification:
B29C 65/02, B32B 37/18, B32B 3/02, C09J 5/02
US Classification:
428 641, 1563063, 156250, 1563082
Abstract:
Individual layers of a high gradient insulator (HGI) are first pre-cut to their final dimensions. The pre-cut layers are then stacked to form an assembly that is subsequently pressed into an HGI unit with the desired dimension. The individual layers are stacked, and alignment is maintained, using a sacrificial alignment tube that is removed after the stack is hot pressed. The HGI's are used as high voltage vacuum insulators in energy storage and transmission structures or devices, e.g. in particle accelerators and pulsed power systems.
