ION DIODE FOR GENERATING NEUTRONS Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC H05H5/00 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: in a known ion diode for generating neutrons, having a hollow, partially transparent cathode and anode which symmetrically encircles the cathode, the cathode is in form of two parallel coaxial discs of radius r_K, which are connected to each other by N≥4 thin metallic rods of length h, lying perpendicular to the surface of the discs and symmetrically about the axis of symmetry of the diode at a distance r_C from it. The anode is a circular cylinder of radius r_A and height H, and the following inequalities must hold:

EFFECT: improved process conditions for making the diode, symmetry of acceleration of hydrogen nuclides.
