  • Magnetic system and method for uniformly scanning heavy ion beams
    Patent number: 5481116
    Abstract: A magnetic system for uniformly scanning an ion beam comprising a magnetic structure having poles with associated scanning coils and respective pole faces that define therebetween a gap through which the ion beam passes; and a magnetic circuit for producing in the gap a magnetic field of sufficient magnitude to prevent the occurrence of a recently observed plasma effect in which the transverse cross-section of the ion beam substantially fluctuates in size while the ion beam is being scanned across the selected surface.
