KAHVE Laboratory has two functional particle sources:
thermal electrons and ionized hydrogen. Each of these are
followed by DC acceleration sections, for obtaining an electron beam to accelerate electrons MeV energy level and
for providing protons to the radio frequency quadrupole accelerator which are being built. So far both systems have
keV energy levels. Both systems employ LabVIEW based
GUIs to interact with the user and to control and monitor the
DC power supplies. The vacuum gauges, turbomolecular
pumps, stepper motors and high voltage power supplies are
all controlled with PLCs. The equipment under high voltage,
are monitored and controlled via Arduino based wifi and
bluetooth wireless communication protocols. The proton
beamline has additional devices for beam diagnostics which
are being commissioned like pepper pot plate, scintillator
screen and faraday cup. Both systems are being standardize
before MeV energy level for generalize to national labs which
are working on detectors and accelerators. We believe such
a setup could be a low budget control and readout example
for modern small experiments and educational projects.
