5U NEC Pelletron Accelerator  
The Pelletron Accelerator consists of an RF ion source. This source can be used with H, He, 3He, C, N, and O beams. The source can then be used with one of five beamlines.

 

These beam-lines are:

1. "MP1" the original Melbourne nuclear microprobe

 

2. "Blue line" equipped with large scattering chamber for ion implantation or broad beam RBS/channeling

3. "Development line" for construction of commercial projects

 

4. "Yellow line" for neutron irradiation

5. "MP2" the second generation nuclear microprobe and the most often used line in the laboratory.
