Abstract: Devices and methods for a rugged semiconductor radiation detector are provided. The semiconductor detector may include a hermetically sealed housing and a semiconductor disposed within the housing that has a first surface and a second surface opposite one another. A first metallization layer may at least partially cover the first surface of the semiconductor and a second metallization layer may at least partially cover the second surface of the semiconductor. The first metallization layer or the second metallization layer, or both, do not extend completely to an edge of the semiconductor, thereby providing a nonconductive buffer zone. This reduces electrical field stresses that occur when a voltage potential is applied between the first metallization layer and the second metallization layer and reduces a likelihood of electrical failure (e.g., due to arcing).

Abstract: A connector system for reducing particulate matter may include a first unit for supplying signals and a second unit for receiving and/or relaying the signals. The signals may be for power generation and/or communications. A coupling may be positioned between the first unit and second unit. The coupling may include a center pin attached to the first unit and for receiving a signal at a first potential. The coupling may further include an outer case attached to the first unit and for receiving a signal at a second potential. The coupling may also have a seal and a spring. The seal and spring may surround the outer case. The spring may engage the second unit and may pass signals between the first unit and the second unit. The spring may comprise a canted coil spring for supporting load forces and for passing electrical current.

Abstract: A radiation generator may include a generator housing, a target electrode carried by the generator housing, a charged particle source carried by the generator housing to direct charged particles at the target electrode based upon an accelerating potential, and a suppressor electrode carried by the generator housing having an opening therein to permit passage of charged particles to the target electrode. A target extender electrode may be between the suppressor electrode and the target electrode and have an opening therein to permit passage of charged particles to the target. At least one voltage source may be coupled to the target electrode, the suppressor electrode, and the target extender electrode to cause the target electrode to have a voltage greater than a voltage of the suppressor electrode and to cause the target extender electrode to have a voltage greater than the voltage of the suppressor electrode.

Abstract: A radiation generator includes an insulator, with an ion source carried within the insulator and configured to generate ions and indirectly generate undesirable particles. An extractor electrode is carried within the insulator downstream of the ion source and has a first potential. An intermediate electrode is carried within the insulator downstream of the extractor electrode at a ground potential and is shaped to capture the undesirable conductive particles. In addition, a suppressor electrode is carried within the insulator downstream of the intermediate electrode and has a second potential opposite in sign to the first potential. A target is carried within the insulator downstream of the suppressor electrode. The extractor electrode and the suppressor electrode have a voltage therebetween such that an electric field generated in the insulator accelerates the ions generated by the ion source toward the target.
