La Jolla Institute Workshop on Novel Ion Sources and their Applications Held in La Jolla California on 3-4 August 1981

Abstract

Experts discussed recent research in high brightness ion sources with possible applications of importance to DoD. Topics presented included: an overview of the definitions of fundamental concepts used to characterize ion beams; capillaritrons in which a gas at high pressure (several hundred torr) is forced through a conducting capillary kept at a potential of about 10 kV with respect to an annular anode -- (Ions are produced from the plasma near the tip of the capillary by a process not completely understood; Liquid Metal Ion (LMI) sources; Gas phase field ion sources; Negative sources; Field emission ion sources; Propagation of intense charge-neutral ion beams in magnetic fields; Thermionic ion sources; Sputtering.
