These results can obviously improve the existing heavy ion facilities performance and have fundamental impact to the development of future facilities as well. This paper will review the worldwide achievements on high performance ECR ion source development in recent years.

PSI is following an upgrade plan to further increase the beam power and to further minimize proton losses. Up to now, this has mainly been achieved by the installation of high gradient copper resonators in the Ring cyclotron and the installation of more powerful RF-amplifiers.
