Neutron yield rate and the characteristics such as energy, the available materialization for accelerating charged particle energy and size of current, metal targets come
Suitable nuclear reaction is selected, the nuclear reaction being often discussed has7Li(p,n)7Be and9Be(p,n)9B, both reactions are all heat absorption
Reaction.The energy threshold of two kinds of nuclear reactions is respectively 1.881MeV and 2.055MeV, due in the ideal of boron neutron capture treatment
Component is the epithermal neutron of keV energy grade, if being theoretically only slightly taller than the proton bombardment lithium metal target of threshold values using energy,
The neutron that can produce opposite low energy, clinic can be used for by being not required to too many slow handle, however lithium metal (Li) and beryllium metal
(Be) the proton-effect section of two kinds of targets and threshold values energy is not high, to generate sufficiently large neutron flux, usually selects higher
The proton of energy causes nuclear reaction.Ideal target should have high neutron yield rate, the neutron energy of generation is distributed close to superthermal
Neutron energy range (will be described in more detail below) wears by force the characteristics such as radiation generation, the cheap easily operated and high temperature resistant of safety without too many,
But actually and it can not find and meet required nuclear reaction.It is well known to those skilled in the art, target T can also by Li,
Metal material except Be is made, such as is formed by Ta or W and its alloy etc..Accelerator 11 can be linear accelerator, convolution
Accelerator, synchrotron, synchrocyclotron.

For Li or its alloy, charged particle line C is proton line, and target T further includes being located at 14 side of active layer for preventing active layer oxygen
The anti oxidation layer 15 of change, pedestal layer 13 can inhibit the foaming as caused by incident proton line simultaneously, and charged particle line C is along incident direction
Sequentially pass through anti oxidation layer 15, active layer 14 and pedestal layer 13.The material of anti oxidation layer 15 considers to be not easy to be applied layer corruption simultaneously
Erosion and the loss and the caused fever of proton beam that can reduce incident proton beam, such as include Al, Ti and its alloy or stainless steel
At least one of.In the present embodiment, anti oxidation layer 15 is the material that nuclear reaction can occur with proton simultaneously, plays above-mentioned work
With while can further increase neutron yield rate, at this point, anti oxidation layer simultaneously be active layer a part, such as using Be or its
Alloy, the energy of incident proton beam are higher than the energy threshold that nuclear reaction occurs with Li and Be, it is anti-to generate two different cores respectively
It answers,7Li(p,n)7Be and9Be(p,n)9B;In addition, Be has high-melting-point and good thermal conduction characteristic, fusing point is 1287 DEG C, heat
Conductivity is 201W/ (m K), the high temperature resistant and thermal diffusivity relative to Li (fusing point is 181 DEG C, and pyroconductivity is 71W/ (m K))
There can be great advantage, further increase the service life of target, and the reaction threshold values of (p, n) nuclear reaction occurs about with proton in it
For 2.055MeV, majority uses the accelerator neutron generator of proton beamlets, and energy is all higher than the reaction threshold values, and beryllium target is also lithium
Optimal selection other than target.With use other materials, such as Al, anti oxidation layer compare, due to the presence of Be, neutron yield rate is obtained
It improves.In the present embodiment, proton heat input is 2.5MeV-5MeV, can generate higher action section with lithium target, while not
Excessive fast neutron can be generated, preferable beam quality is obtained;Active layer 14 with a thickness of 80 μm -240 μm, can occur with proton
Adequately reaction, blocked up will not cause energy to deposit, influence target heat dissipation performance;While reaching said effect guarantee compared with
Low manufacturing cost, anti oxidation layer 15 with a thickness of 5 μm -25 μm.In comparative test, emulated respectively using Mondicaro software
The proton beam of 2.5MeV, 3MeV, 3.5MeV, 4MeV, 4.5MeV, 5MeV by the action face perpendicular to target T direction successively
Inject anti oxidation layer 15, active layer 14 (Li) and pedestal layer 13 (Ta will be described in detail later), the material of anti oxidation layer 15 with Al with
Be is compared, and 15 thickness of anti oxidation layer is respectively 5 μm, 10 μm, 15 μm, 20 μm, 25 μm, and 14 thickness of active layer is respectively 80 μ
M, 120 μm, 160 μm, 200 μm, 240 μm, 12 thickness of pedestal layer have little effect visual actual conditions to neutron yield rate and adjust,
Obtained neutron yield rate (the neutron number that i.e. each proton generates) result is as shown in table 1, table 2.Use Be as lithium target antioxygen
The neutron yield rate promotion ratio calculated result for changing layer relative to Al is as shown in table 3, is known by result, uses Be as anti oxidation layer material
When material, neutron yield rate is obviously improved relative to Al, and the neutron yield rate that can be obtained is 7.31E-05n/proton-5.61E-
04n/proton。
