NEC Mini-Tandem 5.1 MeV Ion Accelerator
NEC Mini-Tandem 5.1 MeV Ion Accelerator
Thin film characterization is carried out in the NCF’s Ion Scattering Laboratory, located in the Laboratory for Research on the Structure of Matter. At the heart of this laboratory is an NEC 5SDH 1.7MV Pelletron Accelerator, which is capable of producing ion beams ranging from 0.2-5.1 MeV. The laboratory maintains a beam line and end station for Rutherford Backscattering, Particle Induced X-ray Emission and Forward Recoil Spectrometry and ion implantation. A computer-controlled goniometer aids in the collection of channel maps for crystal structure orientation studies and ion implantation applications.
