The application relates to a
neutron source with an
ion beam guiding function, which comprises an
ion source, an accelerating
electrode, a
neutron target group and an insulated flow guide mechanism, the
ion source is used for ionizing gas to generate an
ion beam; the
neutron target group is installed on one side of the
ion source, the accelerating
electrode is installed between the
ion source and the neutron target group, and the flow guide mechanism is installed between the
ion source and the neutron target group; the accelerating
electrode is used for applying a
voltage and forming an
electric field one between the accelerating electrode and the ion source, the
electric field one accelerates the
ion beam, and charged ions in the
ion beam deposit on the inner surface of the flow guide mechanism until a stable
electric field two is formed, the electric field two focuses and guides the ion beam entering the inside of the flow guide mechanism, and the ion beam bombards the neutron target group to generate neutrons. The application has the advantages of simple structure, reasonable design, realization of ion beam focusing and collimation, improvement of the
neutron yield of the
neutron generator, adjustment of the positions of the neutron target and the flow guide mechanism, generation of neutron beams with different outgoing directions and multiple functions.
