Description

Considerably enhanced yields of P2+ (8.6 pmA), P3+ (1.9 pmA), and P4+ (0.12 pmA) were obtained using a modified Bernas-Calutron ion source. The source design, experimental layout, and results of extensive optimization studies are described. The improved production of multiply charged ions is of particular interest for applications in semiconductor ion implantation facilities
