“…In the figure, the solid line is obtained by fitting the three plots with eqs. (4) and (5).The value of R derived from the fitting was around 1. Figure 7 shows the generating voltage as a function of the rotation frequency of the rotor where the resistance of the high impedance resistor was 4 GQ and the input voltage was 24 kV.…”

A new type of high voltage generator has been designed with the aim of developing a compact, inexpensive and easily maintained generator for energetic ion beam analyses such as Rutherford backscattering (RBS) and particle induced X-ray emission (PIXE). It consists of several rotating disks and fixed plates made of insulator with metal plates. Since the structure is similar to a rotating disk-type generator, such as the Disktron, it should basically have the potential to display indicators such as compact size and reliable generated voltage stability. Its generating mechanism is, however, rather similar to rectffier-type generators, such as the Cockcroft-Walton and the Schenkel types, so that there are no friction components which might produce a lot of dust, thus opening the high pressure tank for cleaning is an infrequent operation. The proposed generator can be produced relatively inexpensively.A single module model has been built and its generating ability was studied. As a result, it was confirmed that the proposed generating mechanism functions successfully.

“…The choice of the Na particle was based on the materials present in the solar system and because it is a particle available in the Pelletron equipment, which will be used in the future step of the study [17], [18]. The Pelletron Accelerator is a Tandem type electrostatic machine, an evolution of the Van de Graaf accelerator.…”

In this paper, lateral bulk PIN photodiodes designed at FEI University and SOI (Silicon-on-Insulator) PIN photodiodes from UCL are analyzed as photodetectors and SEE (Single Event Effects) sensors. Numerical simulations are used for radiation analysis of heavy ion striking the PIN photodiode using the parameters extracted by real measurements in a non-radiation condition. The occurrence of SEE near-Earth natural environment is unpredictable and is a serious threat that can lead to malfunctions of microprocessors, memory banks and devices that are vital to the correct behavior of a low-orbit or avionic mission. Detecting their occurrence and monitoring the energetic particles in radiation environments is vital and this paper investigates the consequence of SEE on lateral PIN photodiodes through experimentally calibrated TCAD numerical simulations.

“…It consists of a "super-tandea." a 25 HV Pelletron(Herb, 1971) constructed by the National Electro statics Corporation, and the Oak Ridge Isochronous Cyclotron (ORIC), a combination known as the Kolifield Heavy Ion Research Facility (HHIRF). This machine uses a charging chain of metal cylinders, rather than a belt, as shown in Fig.…”
