Abstract
A new 6 GHz electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) ion source has been developed and installed at Louvain-la-Neuve. It replaces the previous ECR ion source OCTOPUS and routinely produces highly charged ion beams from gaseous elements with a better intensity and stability. The magnetic configuration of the ion source and results obtained for the production of gaseous (O,Ar,Xe) and metallic (Ni) ions are presented. The possibility to use the sputtering method to ionize radioactive elements has been tested on F-18(T-1/2 = 110 min). Ionization efficiency measurements for F-18(1+) are reported.
