Nuclear Applications Program.
Abstract
Results reported herein were obtained in the period 1 July 1969 to 31 December 1970. Research in materials analysis was performed at the 5-MV Van de Graaff and the 50 MeV Linac. Radioactivation experiments were performed with charged particle and bremsstrahlung beams. Prompt radiation techniques were studied with neutron, charged particle, and bremsstrahlung beams. The prompt radiations measured included fission neutrons; gamma rays from resonance nuclear reactions, Coulomb backscattered and nuclear reaction particles, and heavy ion induced x rays. The techniques were as well as to trace elements. In ion implantation a joint program was established with the Solid State Technology Branch of the Electronics Division in order to apply ion implantation techniques to the fabrication of new or improved solid state electron devices. Both the 5-MV Van de Graaff and a 60 kV accelerator system were employed in a large variety of experiments and feasibility tests. The following ion beams were used at both low (keV) and high (MeV) energies: 1H, 11B, 14N, 16O, and 40Ar; implanted materials included GaP, Si, BaTiO3, Triglycine Sulfate, Alkali halide crystals, SiO2, GaAs, SiC, and Cd3P2.
