Helium Ion Source
(HIS) is used to produce negatively charged 3He and 4He beams for
injection into the FN Tandem Van de Graaff
accelerator.
The following is a list of recent beams
produced by our SNICS II source, including
typical beam currents and cathode materials. It should be noted that
this is not a complete list, and that the typical beam currents listed
below are sometimes limited by the amount of beam that may be injected
into the FN Tandem Van de Graaff accelerator.
Please contact Ed Stech
for more information regarding ion beams available from this SNICS
II sputter source.
