  • Ion pump noble gas stability using small grain sized cathode material
    Patent number: 10121627
    Abstract: A method includes assessing a plurality of Titanium plates to determine a grain size for each plate and removing all Titanium plates with an average grain size that is larger than a threshold size from the plurality of Titanium plates. One of the Titanium plates remaining in the plurality of Titanium plates after the removing step is then used to form a cathode for an ion pump.
