Description

An electrohydrodynamic ion source with a reservoir and an emitter tip heated by electron bombardment was constructed. This ion source can produce a variety of ion species including materials with high melting points for a long time, owing to the heating method and the reservoir. This ion source was operated with metals such as gold and indium, and has successfully produced an intense and stable ion beam from each material
