Abstract

High temperature superconducting (HTS) electron cyclotron resonance ion source called PKDELIS was designed, developed as a collaborative project mainly between Inter University Accelerator Centre (formerly Nuclear Science Centre) and Pantechnik. One of the major criteria of the design was to get a high performance source suitable for cryogen-free operation on a high voltage platform with minimum requirements of electrical power and cooling water. Ion beams having A∕q of ∼7 are required from this source for the high current injector of the superconducting linear accelerator. The HTS coils have been operational since 2003. A 80mm gap, medium resolution, “third order” corrected analyzing magnet having a bending radius of 300mm has been coupled close to the source. The analyzed beam is collected using a high power, water cooled Faraday cup. The design and performance of the source and issues related to the extraction and transport of the beam are discussed in detail.
