METHOD FOR PRODUCING COLLIMATORS AND OTHER COMPONENTS FROM NEUTRON ABSORBING MATERIALS USING ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

Collimators and other components for use in neutron scattering experiments or to provide neutron shielding in nuclear reactors or accelerator based neutron sources are produced by additive manufacturing from neutron absorbing material, such as boron carbide (B.sub.4C) or isotopically enriched boron carbide (.sup.10B).

Systems and methods employing interchangeable ion beam targets

Provided herein are systems and methods for generating a plurality of different monoenergetic neutron energies using a plurality of interchangeable ion beam targets. In certain embodiments, each of the plurality of ion beam targets is configured to generate a monoenergetic energy value that is at least 100 kiloelectron volts (keV) different from the other ion beam targets. In some embodiments, the ion beam targets are composed of LiF, TiD.sub.1.5-1.8, TiT.sub.1-2, ErD.sub.1.5, ErT, or Li.

Neutron emitting devices

Microsized devices operable to emit neutrons in a selective manner are provided. The devices are configured so that the rate of neutron emission can be varied, either actively or passively. The devices comprise an a-particle emitting material and a neutron producing target material that when aligned and/or positioned a predetermined distance apart emit neutrons. The rate of neutron emission can be slowed or stopped by taking the materials out of alignment and/or attenuating the α-particles being directed toward the neutron producing target material.
