The DCU laser ion source

Abstract: Laser ion sources are used to generate and deliver highly charged ions of various masses and energies. We present details on the design and basic parameters of the DCU laser ion source ͑LIS͒. The theoretical aspects of a high voltage ͑HV͒ linear LIS are presented and the main issues surrounding laser-plasma formation, ion extraction and modeling of beam transport in relation to the operation of a LIS are detailed. A range of laser power densities ͑I ϳ 10 8 -10 11 W cm −2 ͒ and fluences ͑F = 0.1-3.9 kJ cm −2 ͒ … Show more
