The 25 mA continuous-wave surface-plasma source of H− ions

  • 1. Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics, Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences, Novosibirsk (Russian Federation)

Description

The ion source with the Penning geometry of electrodes producing continuous-wave beam of H− ions with current up to 25 mA was developed. Several improvements were introduced to increase source intensity, reliability, and lifetime. The collar around the emission aperture increases the electrons filtering. The apertures' diameters of the ion-optical system electrodes were increased to generate the beam with higher intensity. An optimization of electrodes' temperature was performed
