Abstract

The KSU-CRYEBIS, a CRYogenic electron beam ion source, supplies experiments with low-energy, highly charged ions of numerous species. The supplied charge states cover the range from [formula omitted] to [formula omitted] with typical beam currents of a nA for low charge states and a few pA for the highest charge states. The ion energies cover the range from 0.3 to 165 keV per charge. This is an unusually broad range of final ion energies and hence requires an unusual dynamic ion transport system. This paper presents advances made with respect to the CRYEBIS ion beam transport, diagnostics, and identification. In addition, an update on the developments of ion beams with very high duty cycles is given.
