We developed an electron cyclotron resonance ion source (ECRIS) for new materials production on nanoscale. Our main target is the endohedral fullerenes, which have potential in medical care, biotechnology, and nanotechnology. In particular, iron-encapsulated fullerene can be applied as a contrast material for magnetic resonance imaging or microwave heat therapy. Thus, our new ECRIS is named the Bio-Nano ECRIS. In this article, the recent progress of the development of the Bio-Nano ECRIS is reported: (i) iron ion beam production using induction heating oven and (ii) optimization of singly charged C(60) ion beam production.

In this paper, we discuss the results of our study of the synthesis of endohedral iron-fullerenes. A low energy Fe + ion beam was irradiated to C 60 thin film by using a deceleration system. Fe + -irradiated C 60 thin film was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography and laser desorption/ ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. We investigated the performance of the deceleration system for using a Fe + beam with low energy. In addition, we attempted to isolate the synthesized material from a Fe + -irradiated C 60 thin film by high performance liquid chromatography.
