  2. Introduction For modification high-thermal conductivity materials we need to use ion beam with an energy density 2–5 J/cm2and a pulse duration of not more than 100–150 ns. The increase in pulse duration leads to an increase in the heated layer thickness in a target with an inessential temperature increase.

  4. Energy density of ion beam: anode cathode It is possible to increase ion beam energy density without increasing pulse duration: 1. By increasing the accelerating voltage U However, along with ion generation an essential amount of electrons with the same energy is formed. With an electron absorption of energy over 500 keV, X-ray radiation increases rapidly and it is necessary to provide extra radiation shielding. 2. By increasing the ion current density Jion With ion currents’ densities over 20 A/cm2a collective effect appears, and full-load current is limited by their charge in the A-K gap. In this case, the ion current density is determined by the A-K gap and accelerating voltage. do

  5. Jion 0.2 J/cm2 It is possible to obtain a high energy density of PIB in the target with the help of focusing of the ion beam and elimination of its scattering while drifting. While ions are transferred to the focus their deviation from the initial path occurs due to: Coulomb repulsion Influence of electromagnetic fields, Diffusive scattering, etc. The influence of different instabilities and critical currents on the transfer of PIB is smaller than for the high-current electron beams because of the huge mass of charge carriers.

  6. Olson C.L. Ion Beam Propagation and Focusing // Journal of Fusion Energy, 1982 Divergence angle () It is shown that magnetically insulated diodes have a rather small PIB divergence, amounting to 1–4, in contrast to reflex diodes and pinch-diodes.

  9. The angle  basically depends upon three factors: 1. Local divergence angle The local divergence angle originates from effects due to the presence of knock pins on the anode, the temperature of the source plasma, inhomogeneity of magnetic field, or scattering processes (Humphries 1980a). 2. Aberration The aberration arises from the fact that the direction of the beam acceleration is not exactly directed towards. the focusing point due to an uneveness of the accelerating electrodes, an inhomogeneity of the anode plasma, etc 3. Space-charge effect The space-charge effect also affects the focusing properties of the beam, particularly in a high-current, relatively low-energy region. The authors noted that PIB focusing diameter is, generally, determined by an aberration because of the heterogeneous thickness of the anode plasma and distortion of the electric field near the cathode. When the cathode geometry was changed, it decreased the divergence from 6 to 2.5

Le Improving anti-corrosion property of thermal barrier coatings by intense pulsed ion beam irradiation // Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section B Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms 02/2012. ABSTRACT: Anticorrosion behavior is an important factor for the reliability and durability of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs). Intense pulsed ion beam (ion species: 70% H++30% C+; current density: 150 A/cm2 and 250 A/cm2; accelerate voltage: 300 kV; pulse duration: 65ns) irradiation were used to improve the anticorrosion behavior of the Y2O3-stabilized ZrO2 (YSZ) /NiCoCrAlY thermal barrier coating. The anticorrosion property of the TBCs was evaluated with polarization curves method. A quite good result was obtained. Further analysis show that IPIB irradiation can seal the pores in YSZ layer, and block the penetration channels of corrosive fluid, therefore, improves the anticorrosion behavior.

  23. Abstract In order to investigate the effect of processing parameters of high-intensity pulsed ion beam (HIPIB) on the performance of WC-Ni which contained 8% Ni (YWN8), four groups of parameters, with current densities of 100, 200 and 300 A/cm2with one to five shots, were selected to irradiate the samples.

Abstract—Structural phase transformations in polycrystalline tin dioxide under the action of a nanosecond high-power ion beam with a current density of 50–150 A/cm2are studied. It is found that the effect of a beam with a current density of 150 A/cm2on SnO2 leads to the formation of submicron particles of tetragonal SnO with an average size of 210 nm on the exposed surface. The particles have a pronounced crystallographic facet pattern. Possible mechanisms of the observed transformations are discussed.

  25. I. P. Chernov et al. Physicomechanical Properties of the Surface of a Zirconium Alloy Modified by a Pulsed Ion Beam // Technical Physics, 2014, Vol. 59, No. 4, pp. 535–539. Abstract—The physico-mechanical properties of the surface of the Zr–1% Nb zirconium alloy modified by a pulsed carbon ion beam with a pulse duration of 80 ns, an energy of 200 keV, and a current density of 120 A/cm2are studied at four regimes having different numbers of pulses. Irradiation by a carbon ion beam results in hardening of the surface layer to a depth of 2 μm, grain refinement to 0.15–0.8 μm, zirconium carbide formation, and a decrease in the hydrogen permeability of the zirconium alloy.

  26. Action mechanism of PIB A Melt region Ablation plasma 1-5 J/cm2 Stress wave HPIB 107-108 К/с Ion range 1-2 mkm Stress wave Ion current density 40-70 A/cm2 Pulse duration 100-150 ns Trip of ions with energy of 200-300 keV in metals is 1-3 microns, concentration in the surface layer does not exceed 1017 cm-3. fluence (1.3-2.5)×1013 cm-2. A significant factor affecting the properties of a treated specimen is the thermal effect of the beam, rather than ion implantation.

  27. This corresponds to ion fluence per pulse of (1.3-2.5) 1013 cm-2. Range of ions with energies 200-300keV in metals is 1-3 microns, and their concentration in the surface layer does not exceed 1017 cm-3. In this case the energy density of ion beam is 3-5 J/cm2, and the main factor determining modification of sample surface properties is thermal effect and not the implantation of ions. Therefore, for optimization of samples processing with ion beam it is important to measure the energy density of the beam and its distribution over the cross section.

  30. 2. Influence of energetic neutrals Some previous studies were looking into the formation of a large flux of energetic neutrals in the ion beam produced by magnetically insulated diodes with flashover anodes. The neutrals are produced though the effect of charge exchange between the ions and background neutrals in a gas layer onto the anode surface. T.D. Pointon Charge exchange effects in ion diodes // J.

  33. 3. Influence of changes in accelerating voltage Generation of ion beam with current density more than 20 А/cm2is accompanied by collective effects and ion flow is limited by space charge In the space charge mode, in the nonrelativistic approximation, taking into account the expansion of the plasma emission surface, the ion current density is equal to : whereaccelerating voltage; d0 initial A-C gap spacing; mi – ion mass; z – ion cahrge, v – plasma expansion speed Energy density of ion beam: Increase in the ion current density by 2 times due to increase in accelerating voltage will cause an increase in energy density (at the same pulse width) by 2.8 times
