Material selection for electrooptic deflectors

Description: The selection of a material for a practical device is generally guided by a number of criteria, including cost, size, difficulty of fabrication, durability, driver requirements, and system constraints. A quantitative analysis can usually be made for comparison, or a figure of merit can be computed. In the case of materials for electrooptical (EO) devices the choice is often made based on the availability of materials meeting some minimum system requirement. For fast EO deflectors, where a large… more

Comparison of Nb/sub 3/Sn and NbTi superconductor magnet ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) devices

Description: The TETRA tokamak systems code is used to compare designs for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) that use Nb/sub 3/Sn and NbTi superconductor magnets. Similar minimum-cost devices are found with both types of conductors when superfluid helium (He-2) is used in conjunction with the NbTi. The cost of using NbTi with He-1 cooling is much higher than that of using Nb/sub 3/Sn or NbTi with He-2 cooling. Generally, the minimum-cost devices occur for peak fields at the toroida… more
