Definitions

  • FIG. 1 A first figure.
  • This invention relates to an ion source which makes use of a microwave resonant cavity and finds an application in the equipment of particle accelerators.
  • sources of the duoplasmatron typedo not have a very long lifetime by reason of the presence of electrodes which are placed-in the plasma, the lifetime of these electrodes in particular the cathode being limited as a result of the intense bombardment to which they are subjected.
  • High-frequency discharge sources operating between 20 and 100 Mc/sec avoid this major obstacle but the electron density of the plasma which is created remains of low value.
  • Plasma sources of the type designed for the use of a cavity which is resonant at microwave frequencies are also known.
  • the interaction between microwave and plasma is considerably increased by the application of a static magnetic field such that the conditions of electron cyclotron resonance are satisfied.
  • ion source which employs'on the one hand a plasma source having microwave-frequency excitation at cyclotron resonance and, on the other hand, extraction means of the type employed in the duoplasmatron but specially adapted to the plasma source employed.

  • FIG. 5 describes the TE and TE modes
  • FIG. 6 shows an alternative embodiment of the inventionemploying a truncated coaxial cavity which is excited in the TEM mode.
  • a microwave generator 1 excites an ion source 2 in accordance with the invention by means of a microwave circuit comprising a variable attenuator 3, a directional coupler 4, a matching element 5, a piston 6, a coaxial line 7 and an excitation antenna 9.
  • Pumping means serve to create a vacuum within the cavity by means of the duct 21.
  • the operation of said microwave-frequency excitation circuit is as follows 2
  • the generator 1 contains a microwave-frequency source such as a magnetron, for example, which produces the electromagnetic field.
  • the attenuator 3 serves to vary the power of the wave which is injected into the system.
  • the positions of the piston 6 and of the matching element 5 are adjusted so as to have the best possible matching of the cavity of the source 2. Mismatch is measured by means of the directional coupler 4 which draws-off a part of the wave reflected by the cavity towards the generator.
  • the ion source 2 is described in detail in FIG. 2 in one example of construction.
  • a cylinder 11 forms the side wall of the microwave cavity, said cavity being excited by a coaxial line 7 which is terminated by an antenna 9.
  • a tuning screw 12 serves to vary the resonant frequencies of the cavity to a slight extent.
  • An orifice 13 serves to inject the gas to be ionized into a leak-tight dielectric cylinder 14 which is coaxial with the cylinder 11.
  • O-ring seals 15 and 16 ensure leaktightness of the internal enclosure of the cylinder with respect to the remainder of the cylinder 11.
  • a cap 42 closes the cavity at the top end and an expansion cup 17 which is screwed onto the body of the cylinder 11 completes the resonant cavity 50.
  • Said cup defines an expansion chamber 40 which communicates with the cylinder 14 through the aperture 41. Only one of the extraction electrodes is illustrated this electrode 18 is negatively polarized with respect to the expansion cup 17 which can be connected to ground through the voltage source S. Coils 19 and 20 which are supplied with direct current produce a static magnetic field which is parallel to the axis of revolution of the cavity cylinder ll the complete assembly is mounted on the cylinder 21 leak-tightness with respect to the exterior is ensured by the O-ring seal 22.
  • the microwave-frequency excitation field propagates within the coaxial line 7 and excites the resonant cavity 50 by means of the antenna 9.
  • the shape and position of said antenna are conducive to excitation of the cavity in a transverse electric mode conventionally referred-to below as the TE mode characterized in that the electric field is in a transverse sectional plane of the cavity.
  • the gas to be ionized is injected through the opening 13 in accordance with this alternative embodiment of the invention, the gas penetrates into the interior of the dielectric cylinder 14 and is partially ionized under the action of the microwave electric field in conjunction with the static magnetic field, the amplitude of which is so adjusted that the cyclotronfrequency is in the vicinity of the frequency of the microwave field.
  • the static magnetic field produced by the coils l9 and 20 is very weak and even zero in the zone located near the extraction electrode 18 in order to prevent said field from disturbing the extraction of ions.
  • This is possible by fabricating the cup 17 from a metal having low reluctance such as soft iron, for example, in order to form a magnetic shield.
  • the sudden drop in amplitude of the static magnetic field across the aperture 41 therefore results in a high magnetic-field gradient at this point, thereby accelerating the plasma and facilitating the expansion of this latter within the chamber 40.
  • the electrode 18 which is brought to a highly negative potential makes it possible in accordance with a conventional method to effect a separation between the electrons and the ions.
  • the shape and potential of said electrode are such that the ions are guided towards the enclosure formed by the tube 21, a high vacuum being maintained by means of pumps (not shown) within said enclosure.
  • the dimensions of the cylindrical cavity of revolution can be determined as follows
  • the magnetic field is parallel to the axis of the cavity.
  • the microwave electric field contained in the cavity has a component at right angles to the magnetic field.
  • TE transverse-electric
  • TM transverse-magnetic
  • indices m, n and p are limited to the low values 0, 1 or 2.
  • the height h of the cavity is related to its radius a by relationships which are conventional in the theory of microwave resonant cavities. In FIG. 3, these variations are shown in the case of four modes and at a frequency of 10 gigacycles. Each of these curves has a vertical asymptote which defines a minimum radius a,,,,-,, By choosing for the radius of the cavity a value in the vicinity of a,,,,,,, the upper modes will not be excited.
  • the choice of the cavity excitation device is related to the mode of oscillation which is sought.
  • an antenna which is formed by the extension of the central conductor 9 of the coaxial 7 excites the modes in which the electric field has a component at right
  • the dimensions of the cavity having been defined by means of the curves of FIG. 3, it can be useful to have a means for fine tuning of the resonant frequency of said cavity.
  • this means is provided by the tuning screw 12 which is of metal.
  • the depth of penetration of said screw within the cavity increases the resonant frequency of this latter and vdisturbes the lines of force of a mode of resonance.
  • Different tuning means can be employed such as a cavity which makes use of a movable end-wall, for example. It is readily apparent that devices employing tuning means other than those of the screw type would not constitute any departure from the scope of this invention.
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 there are shown a few examples of distribution of the electric field in the case of the modes of resonance which are most commonly employed. It is known that the amplitudes of the radial and tangential components of the electric field of the mode TE,, are products of sinusoidal function of the polar angle, of sinusoidal function of the z coordinate, and of Bessel function of the radius vector.
  • FIG. 4 describes two modes having an index m 1.
  • FIG. 4a gives the direction of the lines of electric force of the TE mode and
  • FIG. 4b gives those of the TE, mode.
  • FIG. 40 gives the variations in relative amplitude of the electric fields of these modes for a polar angle 41: 0 and
  • FIG. 4d gives those for d) 1r/2.
  • FIG. 5 describes two modes having an index m 0. Nullification of the first index eliminates variations according to the polar angle, with the result that the lines of electric force are concentric circles. Variations in the tangential component of the electric fields are shown in FIG. 5c.
  • the energy dissipated within the dielectric of the cylinder which limits the plasma can be considerably reduced if the radius of said cylinder is chosen so as to ensure that the cylinder walls occupy azone of the cavity in which the amplitude of the electric fielduis small or even zero.
  • the amplitude of a component of the electric field should be zero at a point of the cavity other than a point located on the walls, it is necessary to ensure that the Bessel function which describes the variations in said amplitude as a function of the radius vector r is cancelled in respect-of values other than the ordinary values r or r a, ifa designates the radius of the cavity.
  • the index it it must in that case be at.
  • the modes TE, and TE possess this property.
  • the field is zero at d) 0 and r/a 0.35.
  • the field is zero when r/a 0.72.
  • a dielectric cylinder having a radius within the range of 0.35a to 0.72a will therefore be subjected to a low microwave-frequency field. So far as concerns the TE mode, the electric field is zero when r/a 0.55, irrespective of the polar angle 4).
  • a thin dielectric cylinder having a radius. r 0.55a and placed within a coaxial cavity resonant in the TE mode does therefore not produce any microwave-frequency loss.
  • the resonantfrequency drift of the cavity must be of lower value than the bandwidth of the resonance with plasma in order that the interaction between the wave derived from the generator and the plasma of the cavity should still be appreciable.
  • This condition is therefore written if fpy s f/20p
  • the values of frequency drift and of overvoltage drop depend on the mode of resonance considered, on the diameter R of the dielectric cylinder 14, on the static magnetic field employed and on the electron density n of the plasma at low plasma densities (n 10 m at 2,459 megacycles and at a pressure of 10 Torr) and with a plasma having small dimensions (R/a s 0.1), the frequency drift is not significant it can be considered that the cavity is resonant at the same frequency as in the case of operation on no load, that is to say at the frequency of the generator.
  • the drift decreases in magnitude as R/a is" smaller and, for the same value of R/a, the drift is lower in the TB, modes than in the TE modes. It is even possible to reduce said drift to zero by taking as a value of the static magnetic field the value of cyclotron resonance (875 Gauss at 2,459 megacycles), in which case the absorption of power by the plasma is of maximum value.
  • Cylindrical cavities of revolution are not the only structures which permit the application of the invention
  • the microwave cavity has a composite shape.
  • the cavity is coaxial along the greater part of its length and the remaining portion is a cylinder of revolution.
  • a cylindrical cavity of revolution 50 is traversed along its axis by a magnetic metallic cylinder 23 which passes through the top wall 24 the cylinder 23 is pierced by a duct 25 and this latter communicates with a tube 26 which is brazed to the cylinder 23 ,the central conductor of the coaxial line 7 terminates in a coupling loop 27.
  • An expansion cup 17 defines an expansion chamber 40 which communicates with the cavity 50 through an aperture 41 an extraction electrode 18 is negatively polarized by the source S.
  • a sole plate 28 of soft iron, two columns 29 and 30 and an end-plate 31 constitute together with the magnetic metallic cylinder 23 a magnetic circuit for the static magnetic field produced by the two coils 32 and 33 which are mounted in parallel O-ring seals 34 and 35 ensure leak-tightness of the cavity 50 and of the guide 21.
  • the microwave-frequency excitation field penetrates into the cavity through the coaxial line 7.
  • a current passes through the loop 27 and the resultant magnetic field excites the modes of resonance of the cavity which have a magnetic component at right angles to the plane of the loop.
  • This coupling mode thus excites a transverse-electric-magnetic (TEM) mode.
  • TEM transverse-electric-magnetic
  • This mode of excitation is strictly the TEM mode only in that portion of the cavity in which this latter may be assimilated with a coaxial cavity the gas to be ionized is injected via the tube 26 through the duct 25.
  • This gas is subjected to the microwave-frequency field only as it emerges from the duct 25 it is also in this zone that the static magnetic field produced by the coils 32 and 33 enhances the microwave-plasma interaction as a result of the cyclotron resonance phenomenon, with the result that the aperture 41 is located very near the zone in which the plasma has the highest density.
  • the shape of the magnetic circuit, and especially the presence of the soft iron soleplate 28 produces a high magneticfield gradient across the aperture 41 which promotes the extraction of the plasma as in the previous alternative embodiments.
  • the plasma then diffuses within the expansion chamber 40 and the electrode 19 performs its ion-extracting function substantially without disturbance by the magnetic field.
  • the lines of electric force in the vicinity of the plasma-formation zone are less well defined than in the alternative embodiment which employs the cylindrical cavity.
  • the microwave-frequency electric field is not perpendicular to the static magnetic field, the electron cyclotron resonance phenomenon which has been described still remains possible since the microwavefrequency electric field has a non-zero transverse component except possibly along the axis of the cavity. The electrons accordingly follow a helical path and no longer describe a plane curve.
  • the ion source in accordance with the invention can operate with a wide range of gases. Hydrogen in particular has led to the achievement of good results.

  • An ion source according to claim 8 wherein the cavity is excited in accordance with the TE mode.
  • An ion source according to claim 8 wherein the cavity is excited in accordance with the TE mode.
  • microwave cavity is formed of a cylindrical cavity along the axis of which is disposed a hollow metallic cylinder having low reluctance which is in contact with the top wall of said cylindrical cavity and opens into said cavity in the proximity of said expansion cup aperture, said cylinder being part of the magnetic circuit which guides said static magnetic field.
