description

Abstract We report the successful production of multiply charged Mg ion beams at the Jyvaskyla ECRIS using a magnesium compound, magnesocene. The compound was placed in a separate vacuum chamber connected to the second stage of the 6.4 GHz JYFL-ECRIS. From there the vapour of the compound was allowed to diffuse into the source at room temperature. After a brief optimizing procedure the intensity of the 24 Mg 5+ beam was measured to be 11.8 eμA.
