Abstract To produce intense metal ion beams (e.g. Ti¹³⁺, V¹²⁺,13+, U³⁵⁺ ) for super heavy element search and RIBF experiments at RIKEN, we tried to optimize the RIKEN 28 GHz SC-ECRIS performance. Based on the scaling low and 'high B mode' operation, we systematically measured the beam intensity of various heavy ions as a function of Binj, Br and Bext with 28 and 18 GHz microwaves. In these experiments, we observed that (1) optimum Binj>1.6~2 Bext, (2) optimum Br>1.2~1.4 Bext and (3) optimum Bext is dependent on the charge state and ion spices as described by scaling low. We also observed same tendency for 18 GHz liquid-He-free SC-ECRIS. Using this systematics, we obtained ~400μA of V¹³⁺ at the RF power of 2kW (28 GHz) and very low Bext (~1.4 T with 28 GHz). For long term operation (one month), we successfully produced very stable beam of 100~200 μA of V¹³⁺ ion. Following the success, we constructed new 28 GHz SC-ECRIS for super heavy element search experiments. In this contribution, we report the experimental results in detail and how to produce intense metal ion beams.
