Abstract

This work describes the new facility for applied nuclear physics at the University of Sao Paulo, mainly for irradiation of electronic devices. It is a setup composed of a quadrupole doublet for beam focusing/defocusing plus multiple scattering through gold foils to produce low intensity, large-area, and high-uniformity heavy-ion beams from H-1 to Ag-107. Beam intensities can be easily adjusted from 102particlescm2/s to hundreds of nA for an area as large as 2.0cm2 and uniformity better than 90%. Its irradiation chamber has a high-precision motorized stage, and the system is controlled by a LabView(TM) environment, allowing measurement automation. Design considerations and examples of use are presented. (AU)
