  FECR or the First 4th generation ECR ion source is under development at Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) since 2015. This ion source is aiming to extract intense highly charged heavy ion beams in the order of emA from the dense plasma heated with 45 GHz microwave power. To provide effective magnetic confinement to the 45 GHz ECR plasma, a state of the art Nb3Sn magnet with min-B configuration is a straightforward technical path. As there is no much precedent references, it has to be designed, prototyped at IMP through in-house development. Meanwhile, other physics and technical challenges to a 4th generation ECR ion source are also tackled at IMP to find feasible solutions. This paper will give a brief review of the critical issues in the development of FECR ion source. A detailed report on the status of FECR prototype magnet development will be presented.

Development of the MARS-D ECR ion source, a 45 GHz next generation ECRIS using a NbTi MARS-magnet, has been continuously moving forward at LBNL. Recent stress analyses and other key components of the MARS-D ion source have been essentially finalized. This article presents and discusses the status of this new 45 GHz ECR ion source, such as the latest design features and the fabrication plan with funding available in the very near future.

  Plasma instabilities limit the ECR Ion Sources performances in terms of flux of the extracted highly charged ions by causing beam ripple and unstable operation conditions. In a 14 GHz ECRIS (Atomki, Debrecen), the effect on the plasma instabilities in an Argon plasma at Two Close Frequencies heating scheme (the frequency gap is smaller than 1 GHz) has been explored. A special multi-diagnostic setup [1, 2] has been designed and implemented consisting of detectors for the simultaneous collection of plasma radio-self-emission and of high spatial resolution X-ray images in the 500 eV - 20 keV energy domain (using an X-ray pin-hole camera setup). We present the comparison of plasma structural changes as observed from X-ray images in single and double-frequency operations. The latter has been particularly correlated to the confinement and velocity anisotropy, also by considering results coming from numerical simulations.

  A High-Temperature Oven (HTO) with inductive heating technology has been developed successfully in 2019 at Institute of Modern Physics. This oven features durable operation temperature of >2000’ inside the tantalum susceptor. By careful design the oven structure, material compatibility and thermal stress issues at high temperature has been successfully handled, which enables the production of >400 e’A U33+ with SECRAL-II*. With necessary refinement, this type of oven could also be available with room temperature ECR ion sources, like LECR4 and LECR5. Some improvements in structure have been proposed in this year. The design and testing results will be presented in this contribution.

  The work describes the preparation of metal ion beams from ECR ion sources by the MIVOC (Metal Ions from Volatile Compounds) method. The method is based on the use of volatile metal compounds having high vapor pressure at room temperature: for example, Ni(C5H5)2, (CH3)5C5Ti(CH3)3 and several others. Using this method, intense beams of chromium, titanium, iron, and other ions were obtained at the U-400 FLNR JINR and DC-60 cyclotrons (Astana branch of the INP, Alma-Ata, Kazakhstan Republic).

  High-energy carbon-ion radiotherapy is being carried out at Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba (HIMAC). Over 12000 cancer patients have been treated with carbon beams having energies of between 56-430 MeV/u since 1994. There are two injectors in the HIMAC for medical and experimental use. First injector consists of two ECR ion sources and one PIG ion source, the RFQ linac and the DTL. Usually, this injector suppling the carbon ion for cancer therapy and various ion such as H, He, Fe, Xe are accelerated for biological and physical experiment. The 10 GHz NIRS-ECR ion source produce the carbon ion for cancer therapy. The 18 GHz NIRS-HEC ion source produce He to Xe ions for experimental use. Second injector consists of the compact ECR ion source with all permanent magnet, the RFQ linac and the APF IH-DTL. This injector supplies the carbon ion for experimental use. Additionally, we tried production of the Indium and the Tin ions by using the In(C5H5) and the Sn(i-C3H7)4 at the NIRS-HEC. Beam current of the 115In20+ and 120Sn18+ were 90 and 15μA, respectively. Present status of ECR ion sources and some development will be described.

An upgrade of RHIC EBIS, the extended EBIS, is presently under development at Brookhaven National Laboratory to increase the intensity of the Au32+ ion beams by 40%’50% to 2.1 ’ 109 Au32+ ions/pulse at the booster ring entrance. Generation of intense beams of polarized 3He2+ ions with up to ~ 5 ’ 1011 ions/pulse for the RHIC and the future electron’ion collider is a goal of the EBIS upgrade project as well. Ultra-high vacuum is extremely important for stable and reliable operation of EBIS/T devices. We have developed a linear pumping module based on the ZAO NEG unit commercially available from SAES Getters. This pumping system will be used for the Extended EBIS Upgrade which is presently under development at BNL. A ZAO NEG module has been modified to be heated up to 600 °C by passing up to 120 A of DC current through a stainless-steel cage for required NEG activation and reactivation temperature cycles. A method of pumping speed measurements using pulsed gas injection into the vacuum chamber has been developed and used for characterization of the ZAO NEG-based linear pumping system.
