Description
Negative ion beams are utilized over a wide range of application areas. This paper presents a review of a substantive number of utilization areas for negative ion beams as well as estimates of the number of negative ion beam systems installed, and the ongoing growth rate of each sector. Key application areas explored include national laboratory accelerators, national fusion centres, fusion start-ups, medical imaging, medical radio-immuno-therapy, Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT), ion implantation for semiconductor manufacture, Accelerator Mass Spectrometry, Carbon Dating, and several niche applications.
