Duoplasmatron Diaries
In the spring of 2004 we installed a 30 keV duoplasmatron ion source manufactured by Peabody Scientific. |  |
 | This ion source is connected to an Einzel lens, gate valve, and scattering chamber |
Inside the scattering chamber there are two nested rotatable plates with angle markings for detectors and a liquid-nitrogen cooled target mount. |  |
Here are some spectra taken in Summer 2011:
| a) Wien filter -- Rare-earth magnets and electrical plates are manipulated to control the vertical direction of the beam b) High-voltage power supplies for Wien filter c) Grounding wire for Wien filter d) Deuterated polyethylene target / Copper cup e) Cooling source -- Ionized city water flows through this to cool the target f) Particle detector g) Entrance to turbomolecular pump h) The beam comes out of this hole to strike the target. |
