NGI Powers Up Nuclear Fusion Capabilities with Advanced Solutions

Nuclear technology is a modern high-tech system based on nuclear structure, nuclear reactions, and radiation effects, using accelerators, reactors, radiation sources, and detectors as tools. 

Key Technologies in Nuclear Applications: Six Core Areas

There are six key technologies in nuclear applications:

• Nuclear Energy Utilization and Nuclear Weapons: Using reactors as the core to achieve energy release through nuclear fission and fusion, developing energy devices, power systems, or nuclear weapons. Examples include energy devices like the "artificial sun" EAST facility.

• Nuclear Detection and Accelerator Technology: Developing high-precision radiation detectors, superconducting cyclotrons, and more.

• Nuclear Analysis Technology: Using nuclear physics methods such as proton-induced X-ray emission to achieve ultra-high-sensitivity elemental detection at ppm levels.

• Radioactive Tracer Technology：Using isotopes to label molecules and track their metabolic pathways in organisms.

• Radiation Irradiation Technology: Modifying materials through gamma rays or electron beams.

• Nuclear Imaging Technology: Including medical CT and industrial non-destructive testing equipment.

Boosting 'Nuclear' Core Strength, Enhancing Strong 'Nuclear' Power

NGI maintains high-intensity R&D investment and has developed multiple produced high-end testing instruments to support the nuclear industry and enhance core technological strength.

Controlled Nuclear Fusion

Controlled nuclear fusion is hailed by the International Energy Agency (IEA) as the "ultimate solution to humanity’s energy problems." It refers to controlled and sustainable nuclear fusion reactions. Devices built on Earth to achieve controlled fusion reactions, similar to those of the sun, are often called "artificial suns."

The primary technical approach for controlled nuclear fusion is magnetic confinement (Tokamak coils). The core of a Tokamak device is its magnetic field. Using superconducting coils to generate the magnetic field can greatly address issues related to high current and energy loss.

NGI provides products and solutions for TF coils and DC power supply systems in controlled nuclear fusion.

Particle Accelerators

Particle accelerators are devices that use electromagnetic fields to propel charged particles to high energies. Circular accelerators are commonly used today, operating on two basic principles: electric fields accelerate particles, while magnetic fields control their paths. NGI offers products and solutions for focusing magnets, deflection steering magnets, and DC power supply systems in circular accelerators.

Nuclear Detectors

Nuclear radiation detectors measure radiation rays and their properties. By utilizing various effects produced when rays interact with matter, they convert physical, chemical, and other variables into measurable electrical signals, which are then transmitted to chips for computation and results.

Due to the extremely high sensitivity of detectors, the power supply requirements for detectors and related front-end electronic equipment are more stringent. Otherwise, they are highly susceptible to interference from even minor fluctuations in the power source. Therefore, indicators such as power supply ripple noise and stability are critical for system operation.

NGI provides products and solutions for high and low-voltage power supply systems in nuclear radiation detectors.

Nuclear technology is not only the energy pillar that illuminates millions of households but also a core enabler of strategies for deep-sea, deep-space, and deep-blue exploration.
