Abstract
Irradiated film having substantial uniformity in the radiation dosage profile is produced by irradiating the film within a trough having lateral deflection blocks disposed adjacent the film edges for deflecting electrons toward the surface of the trough bottom for further deflecting the electrons toward the film edge.
Claims2
An apparatus adapted to irradiate a film of thermoplastic material comprising:
- source means for a beam of accelerated electrons;
- and
- trough means comprising trough bottom means and at least one deflection box means;
- wherein accelerated electrons directly impinge upon said deflection box means, are deflected to impinge upon said trough bottom means and are then further deflected;
- whereby a lobe of high electron probability density resulting from said deflections is adapted to impinge an edge of the film to be irradiated.
