    摘要: A metal seal flange assembly for a vacuum system is presented. Its metal gasket has a crossectional shape that is an irregular hexagon with two acute angles between the longest side and the second- and third-longest sides, respectively. The longest side of the irregular hexagon is the vertical inner wall of the metal gasket. This design can reduce the normal force required to seal the metal seal flange assembly and reduce the number of bolts needed, enabling use in a limited working space.

    摘要: An assembly for a charged particle detection unit is described. The assembly comprises a scintillator disc, a partially coated light guide a thin metal tube for allowing the primary charged particle beam to pass through and a photomultiplier tube (PMT). The shape of scintillator disc and light guide are redesigned to improved the light signal transmission thereafter enhance the light collection efficiency. A light guide with a conicoidal surface over an embedded scintillator improved the light collection efficiency of 34% over a conventional design.

    摘要: The present invention introduces a metal seal flange assembly for a vacuum system. A new designed metal gasket has a crosses-section shape of irregular quadrangle with two sharp angle forms by the longer base and legs. The long base of the irregular quadrangle is the vertical inner wall of the metal gasket. A preferred cross section shape of the metal gasket is trapezoid or isosceles trapezoid. this design can reduce the normal force applied to the metal seal flange assembly and reduce the number of bolts used in a limit working space.
