Show Abstract
Production and acceleration system of multiply charged C60 and C70 fullerene ions are being designed for basic studies on cluster physics. Multiply charged fullerene ions are produced by electron impacts. Ions selected by the analyzing magnet are accelerated up to 100 kV through an acceleration column. The ion source generates C60+(8.4 nA), C602+(4.5 nA), C603+(1.6 nA). C60+, C602+, and C603+ are accelerated up to 100, 200, and 300 keV, respectively. The alternating phase focus (APF)-interdigital H-mode (IH) linac was designed to accelerate C60+ ion (ϵ = 1/720) and C70+ ion (ϵ = 1/840) from 0.2 to 3.2 keV/amu with an APF and an operation frequency of 10 MHz. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

Show Abstract
Presently, most charge state distributions produced with highly charged ion sources are predicted with models that approximate the ionization process with the Lotz formula. The Lotz ionization cross sections decrease approximately geometrically with increasing charge state except for ions with very few vacancies, for ions with very few electrons, and for electron impact energies which barely exceed the ionization energy. The geometrical decrease causes these models to predict a maximum abundance for most of the charge states, which is only weakly dependent on the charge state. Experimental results, however, yield much higher abundances for ions with an empty M shell than ions with a partly filled M shell. This difference is explained with indirect ionization processes that are neglected by the Lotz approximation, and normally can be neglected for the ionization of the L shell, but can dominate the ionization of the M shell. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.
