NEUTRON GENERATOR Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC H05H3/06 

FIELD: electrical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: proposed device relates to neutron generators and can be used in neutron logging, in neutron activation analysis, and in beam-therapy. The neutron generator has a radiation source-detector pair. The radiation source-detector pair is located in the line-of-sight of each other. One radiation source-detector is put in a grounded case and is electrically connected to a device for controlling the ion source, which is at zero potential. The other radiation source-detector is in a container and is connected to the power supply of the ion source, fitted in the container. The radiation source-detector pair is separated by a high-voltage insulation layer.

EFFECT: reduced size of neutron generator.
