14.1 MeV Neutrons
For a 14 MeV neutron generator:
1D2 + 1T3 -->2He4 (3.5 MeV) + 0n1 (14.1 MeV)
Budget non-pulsed DT model
- 1.6x109 DT n/s maximum with 230 VAC mains power (1x109 DT n/s maximum with 120 VAC).
- Continuous output, non-pulsed.
- Very fast start to maximum performance. No run-up.
- The Central Controller and HV DC Power Supplies are ina 19" rack housing.
- AC mains power (230/120 VAC).
- Short electrode = short neutron emission zone.
- Chamber operational lifetime between DT gas refill servicing will be approximately 5 years.
- At least 25,000 hour operational life but probably far more due to absence of the old beam on solid target technology.
- The total life cycle cost economics of our products compared to other neutron source technologies is more attractive.
- All models include the specification of long lifetime of at least 25,000 hours of operation.
Industrial DT Model
- ~ 1x1010 n/s with a short electrode neutron emission zone
- Longer line source neutron emission zones are feasible
- Continuous DC
- Pulsed Neutron emission mode up to 10 kHz -- user commanded
- Pulse duration of 2-20 micro second pulse duration -- user commanded
- Maximum duty cycle on time 2%
- Fixed Voltage
- Variable current per pulse -- user commanded
- High stability and repeatability
- All models include the specification of long lifetime of at least 25,000 hours of operation.

High End DT Model
An example of a high end neutron generator system:
- 1x1011 n/s pulsed
- Electrode minimum length 300mm for 12kW
This specification of NSD-NG is being procured by a major customer.
Ask us about the price for such performance:
about 50 times more neutrons per second
and
10 times more operational life between servicing than a solid target NG of similar price.
For more neutron flux, consider a multi-head configuration.
