Abstract

SynopsisWe present non-destructive single-pass ion bunch detection and characterisation by measuring the induced image charge in a detection electrode. The presented technique allows direct determination of ion kinetic energy, absolute ion number and spatial ion bunch length. We will show the results of corresponding measurements with bunches of low-energy highly charged ions and discuss the minimum detectable number of charges.

Highlights

  • Synopsis We present non-destructive single-pass ion bunch detection and characterisation by measuring the induced image charge in a detection electrode

  • For ion bunch detection and analysis we have implemented two distinct single-pass nondestructive charge counting devices [2]. They measure the time-dependent image charge induced by an ion bunch

  • We will show a brief overview of the HILITE experiment and present the implemented ion counting technique
