    Notes: An electron-beam ion trap (EBIT) has just been completed in the Clarendon Laboratory, Oxford. The design is similar to the devices installed at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. It is intended that the Oxford EBIT will be used for x-ray and UV spectroscopy of hydrogenic and helium-like ions, laser resonance spectroscopy of hydrogenic ions and measurements of dielectronic recombination cross sections, in order to test current understanding of simple highly charged ions.

    Notes: Over the past 20 years, Culham Laboratory has been involved in the development of ion sources. Initially these were positive ion systems using magnetic multipole sources for neutral beam heating in the fusion program. However, the development of high proton yield sources with a magnetic filter at Culham has led to a major program in negative ion sources based on the so-called volume-type source which has a similar design. This work has been the basis of a range of negative ion sources for industrial, defence, and fusion applications, all of which are described. A significant part of this work lies in the basic physics of these sources, both for modeling and ion beam acceleration. Numerical models of these are presented. Recently the effects of catalysts such as cesium on the discharge has been shown to cause considerable enhancement in H− and D− yield. The cesium itself also acts as a discharge component and a large source and accelerator for a pure cesium diagnostic beam has been developed. This technique is applicable to other vapors.

    Notes: A rf ion source with a large extraction area suitable for fusion applications is considered. The source is a metallic magnetic multipole bucket with an internal antenna to couple the rf (at a frequency of 2 MHz) to the plasma. The source is diagnosed by an array of Langmuir probes to measure uniformity, density, and temperature and a small probe accelerator to extract a negative ion beam. A two-turn antenna is found to couple more power into the plasma than a half-turn antenna. When operated as a negative ion source at low powers, the source efficiency is found to be high and not to have a strong dependence on gas pressure. An extracted negative ion current density of about 4 mA/cm2 at 7 mTorr was obtained when 3 kW of power was coupled into the plasma.

    Notes: High-resolution vacuum ultraviolet fluorescence excitation spectra of the D(O+u) ion-pair state of I2 have been obtained using a pulsed supersonic jet. Tunable vacuum ultraviolet radiation in the region 184–200 nm was produced by Raman shifting (fifth and sixth anti-Stokes) the output from a tunable excimer pumped dye laser. Vibrational constants valid up to v'=201 in the D(O+u) state have been determined.

    Notes: An experimental study on the production of negative ions at a pure barium surface mounted in a multicusp bucket source is presented. The conversion efficiency, i.e., the ratio of the extracted negative-ion current and the positive-ion current incident on the surface, for deuterium and for hydrogen, have been measured as a function of source pressure, converter bias, and distance between conversion surface and extraction aperture. The conversion efficiency for deuterium is somewhat larger when compared to hydrogen. The conversion efficiencies obtained agree with a model, taking into account the concentration of hydrogen in the barium surface layers. The cross sections which were measured for the stripping of negative ions by neutral gas agreed well with values from literature. The experimentally determined divergence of the surface-produced beam was 4.5° for hydrogen and 3.6° for deuterium at an energy of 100 eV. At a source pressure of 5 mTorr, the volume-produced negative-ion current could be enhanced by 10%; for 1 mTorr this enhancement was of the order of 25%.

    Notes: Proton yields in magnetic multipole sources can be increased by the creation of a magnetic "filter'' within the discharge volume, although this may introduce nonuniformity in the plasma. We have investigated the properties of a filter which can satisfy the requirements of plasma uniformity and discharge electrical efficiency and creates a proton yield of 87% when a 60-A beam is extracted at 80 keV. A model describing the behavior of the filter is also described.

    Notes: A dc negative ion facility has been built to study both the mechanisms controlling H− production in multipole volume sources and the design of accelerators for negative ion beams. After a 7.5-cm movement of the extraction aperture position within the ion source, the arc current and source gas pressure were optimized, and an H− current of 10 mA was extracted from a 0.5-cm2 circular aperture in a 30-s pulse from a 100-A, 90-V discharge run at 18.8 mT. This is the first operation of such sources to provide a quasi-dc current of 20 mA cm−2. The installation of an octupole electron trap in the beam forming electrode has lowered the electron current extracted simultaneously with the H− beam by approximately a factor of 4, and this has led to a low H− beam divergence. The application of a small bias voltage of up to 2 V between the beam forming electrode and the anode has reduced this electron current still further (by more than a factor of 10) while maintaining the extracted ion current. It is now possible to extract ion currents from such a source/accelerator configuration that are larger than the accompanying electron current.

    Notes: Experimental data show that the minimum divergence of a positive helium ion beam does not occur at the beam perveance predicted by linear ion optics. A model is presented that introduces a third-order term into the ion optics equations, in the manner of a spherical aberration to the plasma boundary. Values of the aberration coefficient C are calculated from the data and it is shown that C∝(a/d)−1.9, where a/d is the aspect ratio of the accelerator. The contour of the plasma boundary is plotted and it is shown that the aberration leads to a flattening of the boundary at the extremes of the extraction aperture.

    Notes: One problem inherent in the use of small planar Langmuir probes to analyze low-density plasma is expansion of the space-charge sheath with increased probe potential due to the departure from planarity caused by a nonnegligible sheath edge. Experimental evidence showing the existence of significant edge effects in the ion saturation region of the characteristic obtained from such probes is presented. The extra ion current ΔI+ collected as a result is shown to depend on the (negative) probe potential V according to the empirical relation ΔI+∝V0.75. A theoretical justification for this is obtained. Finally, the effectiveness of the technique in eliminating the edge effect for this type of probe is demonstrated by the equivalence of ion and electron densities measured in a helium discharge.

    Notes: When a suitable accelerating voltage is applied to extract negative ions from a volume production source, electrons are also extracted. If no means of suppression is utilized, the electron current in a hydrogen plasma would typically be of the order of 80–100 times the negative-ion current. In the accelerator designs in use at Culham Laboratory, electrons entering the accelerator are dumped in a trap within the second electrode at a small fraction of the beam energy. Even using this technique, a considerable amount of power would be expended unnecessarily in accelerating electrons to the trap. The suppression of electrons at the source/accelerator interface can be achieved by means of a magnetic field applied across the extraction aperture. This traps electrons, which are then collected on an electrically biased subsection of the first electrode. Experiments performed with an electromagnet configuration have shown that the electron flux entering the accelerator can be reduced as approximately the reciprocal of the square of the magnetic field strength.
