ABSTRACT:
A population inversion is established by beam foil excitation. A beam of completely stripped nuclei is passed through a foil target. An ion beam travels between the plates of a strip transmission line in a plane parallel to those plates. The foil is located in a slot in one of the plates. A voltage pulse is applied at the downstream end of the line and a wavefront propagates down the plates towards the upstream end. This pulse will cause deflection of the ion beam towards the foil along a linear intersection path which travels at approximately the velocity of light.
