The basic physics behind the interaction of ions with solid-state matter is discussed, with an
emphasis on the formation of interaction products between the ions and target atoms …

The beam optics in a nuclear microprobe is considered on the basis of quality criteria for
focusing systems. In this consideration, empirical criteria with dominant chromatic or intrinsic …

A new scanning nuclear microprobe based on a single-ended 2MV Van de Graaff
accelerator has recently been designed and constructed at the Sumy Institute of Applied …

The new magnetic quadrupole lens doublet has been made from a single piece of soft iron
by spark erosion (“wire cutting”) process. The geometric coordinate systems of the lenses …

Improvements in the spatial resolution of instrumentation using focused ion beams are
connected with further reduction of the beam spot size, while the beam intensity is kept …

Согласно прогнозам ведущих экспертов, к середине XXI в. планируется значительный
рывок в использовании наноматериалов и нанотехнологий в авиации, космосе …

One of the ways for an improvement of the nuclear microprobe spatial resolution is using of
more perfect probe-forming systems. The spatial resolution that a microprobe can provide …

The article discusses possible ways of increasing beam brightness in radio frequency (rf) ion
sources. The characteristics of rf ion sources with different permanent magnet systems are …

The paper discusses the feasibility of constructing a compact nuclear microprobe combining
ion acceleration and ion probe formation. In the design proposed a mass-separator, object …

The probe-forming system of a nuclear scanning microprobe based on the parametric
multiplets of quadrupole lenses is optimized. The optimization is aimed at creating an ion …
