What is Helium-3 (He-3) ?
Helium-3 (He-3) is a rare, non-radioactive isotope of helium, with two protons and one neutron, making it lighter than the more common helium-4. It’s found in trace amounts on Earth, but is abundant on the Moon, where it’s been deposited by solar wind. He -3 is of interest for potential use in nuclear fusion reactors, as it could provide a cleaner energy source than current nuclear power, producing much less (or even no) radioactive waste.

What are applications of Helium-3 (He-3) ?
Helium-3 (He-3) is a rare and stable isotope of helium with diverse applications, including medical imaging, neutron detection, and as a potential fuel for fusion energy. It is also used in cryogenics and quantum computing due to its ability to reach extremely low temperatures.
1. Cryogenics and Quantum Computing :
- Helium-3 (He-3) is crucial for achieving extremely low temperatures in cryogenics, enabling research in areas like superconductivity and other quantum phenomena.
- It’s used in dilution refrigerators to cool quantum computers, reducing noise and interference in calculations.
- Helium-3 (He-3) is a highly effective neutron detector due to its ability to capture neutrons and produce a detectable signal.
- It’s used in homeland security applications, such as portal monitors to detect smuggled nuclear materials.
- ³He detectors are also used in scientific research, including neutron scattering experiments and nuclear physics studies.
- Helium-3 (He-3) is used as a non-toxic inhalant in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to produce detailed images of the lungs and airways.
- This allows doctors to visualize and diagnose various lung conditions, like emphysema and asthma.
4. Nuclear Fusion:
- Helium-3 (He-3) is a promising fuel for aneutronic fusion, a type of nuclear fusion that produces minimal to no neutrons, potentially leading to safer and more efficient energy production compared to other fusion methods.
- When combined with deuterium (²H), ³He can generate energy through fusion, producing helium-4 and a proton, with very little neutron radiation.
- While still in the experimental stage, research into ³He fusion is ongoing, with some companies like Helion focusing on developing fusion power plants using ³He as a fuel
- Helium-3 (He-3) is used in dilution refrigerators for ultra-low temperature physics research.
- It’s also explored for its potential in lunar mining, as the Moon is thought to contain significant deposits of He-3.
