ISV.F-90

Multicusp Positive/Negative Ion Source · D-Pace & TRIUMF Licensed

The D-Pace Multicusp Positive/Negative Ion Source combines the flexibility of positive- and negative-ion production in a single compact platform based on TRIUMF licensed technology. It can produce negative hydrogen beams as well as positive hydrogen, helium, deuterium, and other gaseous ion species. User-friendly tuning, long filament life, and straightforward maintenance make it a practical choice for multipurpose accelerator facilities.
