271. Convergent Beam Irradiation Using 3D-RTP System

Convergent beam electron diffraction

In convergent-beam electron diffraction (CBED) a highly convergent electron beam is focussed on to a small (~< 50 nm) area of the sample. Instead of the diffraction spots that are obtained in the back focal plane of the objective lens with parallel illumination in conventional selected-area electron diffraction, CBED produces discs of intensity. The point group can be determined uniquely from t...

Convergent beam electron diffraction

The development of new materials requires an understanding of their mode of growth and the nature of defects, interfaces and strains thereby incorporated. This paper shows how convergent beam electron diffraction (CBED) and large angle CBED (LACBED) can be used to analyse such problems. It is shown how CBED and LACBED can give two-beam rocking curves, which can be used to profile plane rotation...

Using RTP and RTSP for Real-Time 3D Interaction

Electron Beam Irradiation Applications

The irradiation of materials with electron beams or X rays is used extensively to enhance or modify their physical, chemical or biological properties. These electron beam “irradiators” cover a very wide range of accelerators technology, beam current and energies to produce a wide variety of products, mostly with polymers. They also are used for curing ink, coatings, and adhesives as well as for...

Comparison of RTP dose distributions in heterogeneous phantoms with the beam Monte Carlo simulation system

Therapeutic treatment plan evaluation is often based on examining the radiotherapy treatment planning (RTP) system dose distributions in the target and surrounding normal structures. To study the effects of tissue inhomogeneities on photon dose distributions, we compared FOCUS RTP system dose distributions from the measurement-based Clarkson and model-based MultiGrid Superposition (MGS) algorit...
