Efficiency measurements for a low charge state ionic injection into an electron beam ion source

We report injection efficiency measurements when an external primary low charge ion beam is injected into Dioné EBIS. These measurements have been performed using nitrogen and argon ion beams. The total efficiencies reach 59 and 52% respectively. The partial efficiencies, related to the main ionic c...

Description
Summary:We report injection efficiency measurements when an external primary low charge ion beam is injected into Dioné EBIS. These measurements have been performed using nitrogen and argon ion beams. The total efficiencies reach 59 and 52% respectively. The partial efficiencies, related to the main ionic charge state, reaches 30% for N 7+ and 9.4% for Ar 14+. These results correspond to an injection before the confinement period (fast injection mode). The other method (injection during the confinement time) has been also performed using nitrogen ions. The results are less spectacular: only a 0.4% total efficiency has been measured.
