A neutral particle beam(NPB) aimed at the object and receive a small number of neutron signals at the detector to estimate the mass of an object Since there is uncertainty about the location of the axis of the beam relative to the object, we could have aiming errors which may lead to incorrect information about the object. Under the two assumptions that neutral particle scattering distribution and aiming errors have a circular normal distribution respectively, we have derived an exact probability distribution of neutral particles. It becomes a Poison-power function distribution., We proved monotone likelihood ratio property of tlis distribution. This property can be used to find a criteria for the hypothesis testing problem.

The Neutral Beam Injection(NBI) generates ultra-high temperature energy in the tokamak of nuclear fusion. The NBI consists of filament power supply acceleration and deceleration power supply and arc power supply(APS). The APS has characteristics of low voltage and high current. APS generate arc through constant output of voltage and current. So this paper proposed suitable buck converter for low voltage and high current. The case of proposed buck converter used parallel switch because it can increase capacity and decrease conduction loss. When an arc is generated, the NBI chamber occur high voltage. And it will break output capacitor of buck converter. Therefore the output capacitor was removed in the proposed converter. Thus buck converter with constant output is the most important design of the output inductor. In this paper, designed APS verified operation of system and stability through simulation and prototype.

Neutral beam assisted chemical vapor deposition (NBa-CVD) process has been developed as a nove,l room temperature deposition process for the light-soaking free nano-crystalline silicon (nc-Si) thin films including intrinsic and n-type doped thin film. During formation of nc-Si thin films by the NBa-CVD process with silicon reflector at room temperature, the energetic particles enhance doping efficiency and crystalline phase in nc-Si thin films without additional heating at substrate. The effects of incident NB energy controlled by the reflector bias have been confirmed by Raman spectra analysis. Additionally, TEM images show uniform nc-Si grains which imbedded amorphous phase without incubation layer. The nc-Si films by the NBa-CVD are hardly degenerated by light soaking; the degradations of photoconductivity were just a few percents before and after light irradiation.

One of the more promising proposals for guiding and focusing neutral atoms involves dark hollow laser beams. When the frequency of the laser is detuned to the blue of resonance, the dipole force the atoms feel in the light confines them to the dark core where the atoms can be transported with minimal interaction with the light. The ability of the all-light atom guides to transport large number of ultracold atoms for long distances without physical walls leads to the possibility of a versatile tool for atom lithography, atom interferometry, atomic spectroscopy as well as for transporting and manipulating Bose-Einstein condensates. Furthermore since the atoms transported in all-light atom guides do not come into contact with matter, they can in principle be used to transport antimatter as well. The ability to vary the core size of the hollow beam makes the all-light atom guide potentially useful for focusing neutral atoms. The atoms could be focused as tight as the core size of the hollow beam at its waist. This new focusing scheme, called the atom funnel, would not show spherical and chromatic aberrations that conventional harmonic focusing suffers from. (omitted)

플라즈마 식각에서 물리적 손상과 전기적 손상은 차세대 Nanoscale 소자와 Deep - Submicron 반도체공정에서 해결되어야 할 가장 큰 문제 중 하나이다. 이 중 전기적인 손상을 줄이기 위한 몇 가지 무손상 공정이 제시되고 있으며, 그러한 기술 중의 하나가 이온빔의 Low Angle Forward Reflection을 이용한 식각방법이다. Low Angle Forward Reflection방법은 이온소오스로부터 발생시킨 이온을 Low Angle 에서 Reflection-시켜 이온빔을 중성화되도록 하는 방법으로, 이전 연구를 통해 Reflection시 입사각이 5도일 경우 대부분의 이온들이 중성화되는 결과를 얻었다. 또한, 실험에 사용된 $SF_6,{\;}NF_3,{\;}CF_4$와 같은 모든 가스종에서 유사한 값의 중성화 정도를 관찰할 수 있었으며, 이러한 가스를 이용하여 $Si0_2$ 식각시 Vertical한 Profile 결과를 얻었다. 본 연구에서는 기존 Grid 장치에서 이온소오스 부분에 Low Angle Forward Reflected Neutral Beam을 위한 판형 Reflector를 부착하였으며, 이에 따라 중성빔의 Flux가 크게 향상되며 Beam의 직진성을 향상시킬 수 있었다. 또한, F계열 가스를 이용한 실험을 통해 $Si0_2$ 식각율과 식각특성 면에서 향상된 실험결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

The large-area high-power radio-frequency (RF) driven ion sources based on the negative hydrogen (deuterium) ion beam extraction are the major components of neutral beam injection (NBI) systems in future large-scale fusion devices such as an ITER and DEMO. Positive hydrogen (deuterium) RF ion sources were the major components of the second NBI system on ASDEX-U tokamak. A test large-area high-power RF ion source (LAHP-RaFIS) has been developed for steady-state operation at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) to extract the positive ions, which can be used for the NBI heating and current drive systems in the present fusion devices, and to extract the negative ions for negative ion-based plasma heating and for future fusion devices such as a Fusion Neutron Source and Korea-DEMO. The test RF ion source consists of a driver region, including a helical antenna and a discharge chamber, and an expansion region. RF power can be transferred at up to 10 kW with a fixed frequency of 2 MHz through an optimized RF matching system. An actively water-cooled Faraday shield is located inside the driver region of the ion source for the stable and steady-state operations of RF discharge. The characteristics and uniformities of the plasma parameter in the RF ion source were measured at the lowest area of the expansion bucket using two RF-compensated electrostatic probes along the direction of the short- and long-dimensions of the expansion region. The plasma parameters in the expansion region were characterized by the variation of loaded RF power (voltage) and filling gas pressure.

Castellated beams fabricated from standard I-sections are being used for several structural applications such as commercial and industrial buildings, multistory buildings, warehouses and portal frames in view of numerous advantages. The advantages include enhanced moment of inertia, stiffness, flexural resistance, reduction in weight of structure, by passing the used plate girders, the passage of service through the web openings etc. In the present study, experimental and numerical investigations were carried out on concrete encased steel castellated beams with hexagonal openings under flexural loading. Various positions of openings such as along the neutral axis, above the neutral axis and below the neutral axis were considered for the study. From the experimental findings, it has been observed that the load-carrying capacity of the castellated beam with web opening above neutral axis is found to be higher compared to other configurations. Nonlinear finite element analysis was performed by using general purpose finite element software ABAQUS considering the material nonlinearities. Concrete damage plasticity model was employed to model the nonlinearity of concrete and elasto-plastic model for steel. It has been observed that FE model could able to capture the behaviour of concrete encased steel castellated beams and the predicted values are in good agreement with the corresponding experimental values.

For the effective design of a beam forming structure of the negative-ion-based neutral beam injector, a computer program based on a particle simulation model is developed for the calculation of charged particle motions in the electrostatic fields. The motions of negative ions inside the acceleration tube of a multiple-aperture triode are computed at finite time steps. The electrostatic potentials are obtained from the Poisson's equation by the finite difference method. The successive overrelaxation method is used to solve the matrix equation. The particle and force weighting methods are used on a cloud-in-cell model. The optimum design of the beam forming structure has been studied by using this computer code for the various conditions of elctrodes. The effects of the acceleration-deceleration gap distance, the thickness of the deceleration electrode and the shape of the acceleration electrode on beam trajectories are exmined to find the minimum beam divergence. Some numerical illustrations are presented for the particle movements at finite time steps in the beam forming tubes. It is found in this particle simulation modelling that the shape of the acceleration electrode is the most significant factor of beam divergence.
