Abstract :
The design of a 30-inch radius combined velocity and direction focusing mass analyzer is described. Application of this instrument as a high purity isotopic separator for research in nuclear physics, metallurgy, and semiconductors is also discussed. Brief mention is made of the development of p-n junctions for the detection of singly-charged ions of low kinetic energy.
