An apparatus includes an electromechanical x-ray generator (MEXRAY) configured to charged capacitors using a small, high-voltage direct current. The apparatus also includes an ultraviolet (UV) light emitting diode (LED) driven photocathode device configured to control/modulate an electron dose rate of the MEXRAY or other vacuum DC, source.

Neutron multiplicity detector control logic and firmware may control a neutron multiplicity detector such that higher count rates can be achieved by an order of magnitude of more over conventional control logic and firmware. Count rates of over 1,000,000 cps, and even over 1,500,000 cps, have been realized in some implementations.

A door hinge which stops the swing-open motion of a door before it can strike an adjacent wall located at ninety degrees to the closed door. By stopping the motion of the door at ninety degrees, the protruding hardware of the door will not penetrate or otherwise damage the adjacent wall. Frequent repairs are therefore avoided. The door hinge is adaptable to various residential and commercial applications.
