Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 この発明は、イオン源、特に熱陰極アーク放電
型イオン源における引出電極の位置および姿勢調
整装置に関するものである。
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an ion source, particularly a device for adjusting the position and attitude of an extraction electrode in a hot cathode arc discharge type ion source.

従来型のこの種のイオン源においては、イオン
放出面言い換えればイオン生成室の出口すなわち
アークチヤンバと引出電極との距離は固定されて
いる。このため引出電圧を可変としたときに、高

る。
In this kind of conventional ion source, the distance between the ion emitting surface, in other words, the exit of the ion generation chamber, that is, the arc chamber, and the extraction electrode is fixed. For this reason, when the extraction voltage is made variable, there is a drawback that a large amount of discharge occurs during extraction of the ion beam on the high voltage side, making it impossible to use the device as a device.

一般に引出される電流の値は、Langmuir―
Childの法則を適用して次式で表わされる。
Typically the value of the current drawn is Langmuir−
Applying Child's law, it is expressed by the following formula.

I=KV3/2/d2 上式で、Kはイオンの質量および電荷並びに誘
電率によつて決まる定数、Vは引出電圧、dはイ
オン放出面から引出電極までの距離である。
I=KV 3/2 /d 2 In the above formula, K is a constant determined by the mass and charge of the ion and the dielectric constant, V is the extraction voltage, and d is the distance from the ion emission surface to the extraction electrode.

上式からわかるように電極間距離dを小さくす
ると、引出される電流Iは増加するが、dを小さ

電極との間の距離dを大きくすれば放電が減少す
ることが認められる。
As can be seen from the above equation, when the distance d between the electrodes is decreased, the extracted current I increases, but when d is decreased, the ion flow collides with the extraction electrode, causing electrons, protrusions, dirt, etc. Spark discharge and continuous discharge start mainly between the ion generation chamber and the extraction electrode, making it impossible to obtain a stable beam current. As a countermeasure against this, it is recognized that the discharge is reduced by increasing the distance d between the ion emitting surface and the extraction electrode.

Therefore, the present invention makes it possible to adjust the distance between the electrodes by movably supporting the extraction electrode in the direction of the central axis, and also makes it possible to adjust the position and inclination of the extraction electrode with respect to the central axis, thereby solving the drawbacks of the conventional structure. The purpose is to eliminate the problem.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the sliding plate 10 is equipped with a position adjustment drive motor 26 and an inclination adjustment mechanism, which constitute a position adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position and inclination of the extraction electrode 3 with respect to its central axis as necessary. A support plate 25 to which a drive motor 27 for adjusting the inclination is attached is fixed. A sprocket 28 is attached to the output shaft of the position adjustment drive motor 26, and drives the sprocket 21 attached to the shaft 6 of the extraction electrode 3 via a chain 29. As a result, the shaft 6 is moved back and forth in its axial direction by engagement between the screw of the rotating sleeve 18 and the feed screw 20 provided on the shaft 6. In addition, the drive motor 27 for tilt adjustment
The output shaft of is connected to shaft 6 via arms 30, 31, 32.
In this case, although not shown, the arm 31
is connected to the arm 32 so as to be slidable in its axial direction relative to the shaft 6, for example via a sliding key or a spline. Therefore, the shaft 6 can be rotated by operating the tilt adjustment drive motor 27.
In this case, since the operation of the arm 32 and the operation of the chain 29, ie, the sprocket 21, are constructed so as not to interfere with each other, the axial movement and rotation of the shaft 6 are performed without being influenced by each other. The three drive motors 22, 26, 27 described above are preferably reversible motors in view of their functions, but if necessary, a switching mechanism may be provided to enable reversible motors.
