Ion Beam Simulation Using a Lens System for Acceleration and Deceleration of Low Energy Ion Beam
The characteristics of electrostatic lens systems are studied with a view to applications in an ion-beam source. Rays are traced with the SIMION simulator, which offers a realistic description of space charge effects. Design of the lens system was done by using SIMION computer program. A parallel beam of singly charged nitrogen ions of diameter 10 mm with energy of 6 keV was started at a distance of 150 mm before entering the acceleration/ deceleration lens system. The lens system was optimized using the simulation data obtained with a SIMION computer program for calculating io... view moreĀ»
