NEC originally designed the NEC scan system was for NEC ion implanters, similar to our neutral beam trap deflector. It is also incorporated in ion beam analysis beamlines on Pelletron accelerator systems. The raster scanner assembly, when used with the related power supply and controller, provides a very reliable system for uniform ion beam deposition into flat targets.
We design the raster scanner power supply to position near the raster scanner assembly. It has a ratio of horizontal to vertical scanned frequencies, which are crystal locked, to optimize scan uniformity. Transformer coupling assures the complete absence of DC offset voltages.
NEC equips the raster scanner controller with two potentiometers for separate control of the horizontal and vertical scanning plate voltages. Each set of plates can be turned off individually to allow set up of one scan direction at a time.
