  The SPIRAL1 charge breeder (SP1CB) is under opera-tion. Radioactive ion beam (RIB) has already been deliv-ered [1] to Physicist for experiments. Charge breeding efficiencies demonstrated high performances for stable ion beams than RIB’s. The beam optics, prior to the injection of the 1+ ions into the SP1CB, is of prime im-portance [2] for obtaining such high efficiencies. Moreo-ver, the intensities of the RIB’s are so low, and indeed difficult to tune the SP1CB. A stable beam having a close B’ is required to find out the set of optic parameters preceding the tuning of the RIB. Hence, it has been de-cided to focus our effort on the control of 1+ beam optics leading to high charge breeding efficiencies whatever the 1+ mass, energy and Target Ion Source System (TISS) used. This contribution will show the strategy undertaken to overcome that problem and the results obtained.

  Contaminants reduction in Electron Cyclotron Resonance Charge Breeders (ECRCB) is a key point for the future experiments foreseen at LNL and GANIL Isotope Separation On Line (ISOL) facilities. According to the mass separator resolution set downstream the ECRCB, the radioactive ion beam study can be challenged in case of low production rate. An ongoing collaboration between LNL, LPSC and GANIL laboratories aims to improve the beam purity, acting on all the pollutant causes. Comparative experiments will be done at LPSC using different techniques, like covering the plasma chamber wall with liners of different materials. Different configurations of the ECRCB will also be tested, with the enhancement of the efficiency and charge breeding time parameters as additional objectives. A presentation of this program is proposed together with the recent upgrade of the LPSC 1+N+ test bench, with the aim to improve the vacuum quality.

The Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source ECR3* has recently been commissioned at the Argonne Tandem Linac Accelerator System (ATLAS) at Argonne National Laboratory. While ECR3 can provide many of the stable ATLAS beams, its other intended purpose is the production of C-14 ion beams which were previously produced by a now-retired negative ion source. This paper will discuss the final installation and commissioning of the ion source as well as the preparations for running C-14. A stable C-13 ethylene gas was used as a surrogate to determine the expected level of N-14 contamination when running C-14 since they are inseparable at ATLAS. We were also able to confirm consumption rates and charge state efficiencies under different C-13 running conditions in order to optimize the upcoming C-14 beam production.
