  • Patent number: 8468890
    Abstract: Provided are an ultrasonic inspection device, an ultrasonic inspection method, and an atomic power plant nondestructive inspection method that are capable of efficiently generating ultrasonic waves having a sufficient intensity and that are capable of carrying out preferable inspection in a wide range. Provided is an ultrasonic inspection device including a laser device that emits output-adjusted laser light and a volumetric inspection ultrasonic-wave transmitting unit having a transmitting diaphragm that generates ultrasonic waves upon being irradiated with the laser light emitted by the laser device, inspection being carried out by radiating the ultrasonic waves generated by the transmitting diaphragm of the volumetric inspection ultrasonic-wave transmitting unit on a structural member, wherein the transmitting diaphragm is formed of titanium.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20100232559
    Abstract: A neutron generating apparatus includes an ion generating device. The ion generating device includes an ion generating tube to which deuterium gas or tritium gas is supplied, a magnet arranged outside of the ion generating tube for generating a magnetic field in the ion generating tube, a plasma generating antenna arranged outside of the ion generating tube for generating an electric field in the ion generating tube, and an RF power source that supplies high frequency power to the plasma generating antenna. The RF power source supplies the high frequency power to the plasma generating antenna by controlling the pulse thereof so that an unsteady state of plasma is generated repetitively in the ion generating tube.
