Abstract

The influence of electrons interaction with ion beams extracted from rf source on the behavior of ion beam optics has been studied. Both theoretical and experimental studies show decrease of beam emittance and beam radius due to decrease of space-charge effect produced by partial neutralization of ion beams. Decrease of neutralization percentage and increase of the beam angular divergence occur with increasing the plasma intensity of the source.
