The effect of the frequency tuning on bremsstrahlung spectra, beam intensity and shape in the 10 GHz, Nanogan ECR ion source have been investigated. The main aim of this work was to study the effect on a lower frequency type of ECR source where the separation between various modes in the cavity is much larger. The warm and cold components of the electrons were observed to be directly correlated with the beam intensity enhancement in the case of Ar⁹⁺ but not so for O⁵⁺. However, the warm electron component was much smaller than the cold component. The beam shapes of O⁵⁺ measured as a function of frequency showed a strong variation without hollow beam formation. Due to the use of an octupole magnetic structure in the Nanogan ECR source, the quadrupolar structure of the ECR surface is modified with the frequency tuning. In general, we have observed a strong absorption of microwave power at various frequencies whenever the reflection co-efficient showed a minimum value and the effect was seen stronger for the higher charge states. Details of the measurements carried out on the bremsstrahlung spectra, beam intensity and shape are presented together with the results of simulations.
