Description
The demand of scientists for high energy metal ion beams for nuclear experiments has motivated iThemba LABS in collaboration with FLNR, JINR to study their production with using Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Sources (ECRIS). The most common method is to heat the metal in an electrical oven inside the source to high temperatures to produce sufficient partial pressure for operation. The special oven design and important features of the oven technique will be presented. Results obtained so far for the following elements; Lithium, Calcium, Magnesium and Bismuth, will be presented.
