Abstract
Deflection apparatus is shown for high perveance ion beams, operating at 20 Hz fundamental and substantially higher order harmonics, having a magnetic structure formed of laminations with thickness in range between 0.2 and 1 millimeter. Additionally, a compensator is shown with similar laminated structures with resonant excitation circuit, operating at 20 Hz or higher, in phase locked relationship with the frequency of the previously deflected beam. Furthermore, features are shown which have broader applicability to producing strong magnetic field in magnetic gap. Among the numerous important features shown are special laminated magnetic structures, including different sets of crosswise laminations in which the field in one lamination of one set is distributed into multiplicity of laminations of the other set of coil-form structures, field detection means and feedback control system, cooling plate attached in thermal contact with number of lamination layers. Surfaces on the entry and exit sides of the compensator magnetic structure have cooperatively selected shapes to increase the length of path exposed to the force field dependently with deflection angle to compensate for contrib…
