HUS Pelletron Accelerator Laboratory
NEC 5SDH-2 Tandem Pelletron Accelerator: The first and only research accelerator in Vietnam, featuring modern Ion Beam Analysis and MeV-ion implantation techniques for various applications in Nuclear, Materials, Environmental, and Geological Sciences, …
.js-id-overview
HUS Pelletron Accelerator is the leading research accelerator facility in Vietnam. It is one of the highlight facilities of the “Laboratory for Ion beam and Nuclear Applications” (LINA), Department of Nuclear Physics, Faculty of Physics.
The primary purpose of the NEC RF charge exchange ion source, known as Alphatross, is to generate beams of He- ions for injection into tandem accelerators. Additionally, this source has the capability to generate beams of H–, NH–, and O– ions.

Typical cross section of the beam spot for IBA beamline: 0.8 cm X 0.8 cm.
Typical cross section of beam spot for Implantation beamline: 10 cm x 10 cm (Beam uniforminty can be adjusted using raster scanner).
For years, our facility offers students many chances to experience an accelerator facility: beam optics, vacuum components and ion sources
Student experiments: Rutherford experiment , PIXE analysis of thin and thick samples.
The NEC ion beam analysis (IBA) endstation, model RC43, provides a complete IBA system offering automatic unattended data collection and can perform qualitative analysis using multiple techniques such as RBS, ERD, NRA and PIXE simultaneously.
Nuclear physics experiments using MeV beam can be conducted, along with possible use of Nuclear Reaction Analysis (NRA) Technique - an analytical application of nuclear reaction.
The Implant Endstation is a manual single wafer handler. The chamber is designed to ensure accurate dose monitoring with uniform deposition.
The operational records of the accelerator are given here
A reliable procedure for PIXE analysis of thick target sample has been developed, calibrated and standarlized. As part of the QA/QC protocol of the laboratory, several standard samples measured using our thick target PIXE (TTPIXE) analysis procedure.
Among the research activities on the RBS system of the HUS Pelletron Laboratory:
A computer program has been developed in the HUS Pelletron Laboratory to sinulate RBS spectra with similar features with the popular program RUMP.
