  • Laser-Ablation Ion Source with Ion Funnel
    Publication number: 20130207000
    Abstract: A laser-ablation ion source for generating a low energy ion beam having low longitudinal and transverse emittance, including a supersonic nozzle, followed by an RF ion funnel. A laser source generates a laser beam which is focused by a lens to an ablation site. The ablation site is located upstream of the nozzle, at a distance of less than 10 mm from the nozzle aperture. The laser irradiates the ablation site through the nozzle aperture to generate the ions.
