PULSE NEUTRON GENERATOR Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC G21G4/00 

FIELD: electricity.

SUBSTANCE: device includes vacuum accelerator tube with anode and cathode with target on the internal surface, pulse voltage generator, high-voltage actuation transformer with its high-voltage winding connected to accelerator tube cathode and low-voltage winding connected to accumulation capacitor via discharger. Accelerator tube anode is made in the form of two counter-directed rods in symmetrical position, rod ends bearing heads out of deuterium-saturated metal, one of rods is connected to primary winding of high-voltage transformer, second rod is grounded, and cathode with target are made in the form of cylinder housing the anode symmetrically.

EFFECT: enhanced power efficiency of neutron generation, reduced dimensions of device.
