The Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source (ECRIS) is a versatile and reliable ion source to charge-breed rare isotopes at the TRIUMF’s Isotopes Separation and Acceleration (ISAC) facility. Significant research work has been done by different groups worldwide to improve the efficiency and performance of the ECRIS. The most recent result of these activities is the implementation of the two-frequency plasma heating. At the ISAC facility of TRIUMF, a 14.5 GHz PHOENIX booster which has been in operation since 2010 was recently upgraded to accommodate the two-frequency heating system using a single waveguide to improve its charge breeding efficiency. Besides, a program has been launched to improve and optimize the extraction of charge bred isotopes in terms of beam emittance. A detailed investigation of the effect of the two-frequency heating technique on the intensity, emittance, and the efficiency of the extracted beam is presently being conducted and the status will be presented.
