Abstract
High impedance generators have been proved efficient to produce, with suitable diodes, intense light ion beams. Using the pinch-reflex diode concept on the THALIE generator in operation at VALDUC, allows acceleration of deuteron or proton beams. By striking the beam with LiF thick targets (p(7Li,n)7Be or d(7Li,n)8Be reactions), neutron emission in the 1012 - 1013 range have been measured.
