Operation of an electron-cyclotron-resonance ion source with supplemental electron injection

Experimental observations obtained on an electron-cyclotron-resonance ion source with electron injection by a ferroelectric cathode are presented. The results are in reasonable agreement with the proposed qualitative plasma model based on the Fokker-Planck equation. A procedure for the optimized ope...
