Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for continuously modulating the configuration of a magnetic field intended for the confinement of a plasma generated by electronic cyclotron resonance, as well as a source allowing the implementation of this method.
- ECR sources Sources with electronic cyclotron resonance, called ECR sources, are commonly used to produce mono-charged or multi-charged ions (that is to say atoms from which one or more electrons have been torn off).
- ECR ECR denotes the value of the modulus of the magnetic field B for which the electronic cyclotron resonance is obtained.
- the chamber containing the plasma has a symmetry of revolution with respect to an axis which will be called z.
- the magnetic field B is produced by means external to the vacuum chamber. These means may consist of a set of coils traversed by an electric current or a set of permanent magnets. The coils used, if they are made of superconductive materials, must be cooled to a determined temperature by an appropriate cryogenic system.
- the field B is defined by its module B and by the angle ⁇ which it forms with the axis of revolution z.
- the configuration of the magnetic field inside the vacuum chamber determines the number of charges carried by the plasma ions.
- the configuration of the axial component of the magnetic field is decisive.
- the so-called injection zone where the high-frequency wave is introduced and where gas or metal atoms to be ionized are also introduced.
- this injection zone is the so-called extraction zone. This extraction zone corresponds to the exit of the ion beam from the chamber.
- ECR sources allowing to produce strong flows of mono-charged ions (having an energy of the order of 200 KeV).
- the configuration of the module of the axial component B z , inside the vacuum chamber is as shown in FIG. 1.
- the curve has two maxima M1 and M2 at abscissas located respectively , in the extraction and injection zones and an intermediate minimum M3, located between the two maxima, at an abscissa corresponding roughly to the center of the chamber.
- These two maxima generally have a value greater than the value R ECR z of the axial component B z for which the electronic cyclotron resonance is obtained.
- the maximum value of the differences M1-M3 and M2-M3 represents the maximum gradient of the axial component. This gradient is small, generally of the order of a few percent of the maximum value of the axial component.
- the axial component has a module whose value remains close to the value R ECRZ .
- Such an axial component makes it possible to obtain an efficient coupling between the high-frequency wave and the magnetic field B.
- the atoms are thus rapidly ionized and their diffusion inside the chamber is rapid.
- the extraction of the ions is also carried out at a value of B z close to the value R ECRZ of resonance.
- the configuration of the axial component B z is as shown in FIG. 2.
- the axial component B z has two maxima N1 and N2 corresponding to values greater than the value R ECRZ and located near the injection and extraction zones.
- N3 The minimum value noted N3, lower than the value R ECRZ , is reached inside the vacuum chamber.
- the maximum value of the differences N2-N3 or N1-N3 which represents the maximum gradient of the axial component is relatively large, in general of the order of 1.5 to 2.5.
- the maximum values obtained at points N1 and N2 are higher than the maximum values M1 and M2 of the configuration shown in FIG. 1; they are about 1.5 times higher.
- the present invention therefore proposes to solve the technical problems posed by the prior art, previously exposed.
- This object is achieved by a method of modulating the configuration of the magnetic field B defined by its axial component B z and its radial component B r) intended for the confinement of a plasma generated by electronic cyclotron resonance at a value R ECR of field B, and having a symmetry with respect to an axis of revolution z.
- the intensity and / or the direction of the magnetic field B is continuously and at least locally adjusted to modulate its configuration in a domain
- the module of the axial component B z takes values located on both sides and d other of the resonance value R ECR2 and which is delimited, between a first configuration in which the variations of said module along the axis of revolution z have a weak gradient, and a second configuration, in which the variations of said module have a gradient strong, the value of the ratio: maximum modulus of the magnetic field / minimum modulus of the magnetic field, being greater than 1.5 and preferably greater than 2.
- This method has the advantage of being able to create a magnetic field B, inside the chamber, having any configuration intermediate to the two extreme configurations defined above.
- This method can be applied to all kinds of magnetic field generating means, namely, a permanent magnet, a coil, a system using superconductors, or a combination of two or more of these means. According to this method, it is possible to pass continuously from a magnetic field configuration intended to produce single charged ions to a configuration allowing the production of multi-charged ions.
- the field B is created inside a vacuum chamber, using generator means arranged outside the chamber.
- the intensity and / or the direction of the magnetic field B in said chamber is adjusted continuously and at least locally by moving at least part of the generating means.
- Another possibility which does not exclude being used in combination with that set out above, consists in adjusting at least locally the intensity and / or the direction of said magnetic field B by adjusting the generating means.
- the generator means can be adjusted by varying, for example, the intensity of their supply current.
- the field B is modulated so that its module is between 0.1 and 3 times the value of the module of the magnetic field for which the resonance is obtained.
- the direction of said magnetic field is varied so that the angle ⁇ formed by said field vector B with the axis of revolution z is between 0 ° and 90 °.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a device for implementing the method described above. This object is achieved by means of a source of mono- and multi-charged ions of the type comprising:
- this magnetic field B located outside of said vacuum chamber; this magnetic field B, defined by its axial component B z and its radial component B r ; is intended for confining the plasma generated by electronic cyclotron resonance to an R ECR value and has symmetry with respect to an axis of revolution z,
- this source further comprises means for modulating the configuration of the magnetic field B by adjusting, at least locally, the direction and / or the intensity of said magnetic field B. It is then possible to use the same source to produce mono-charged ions and multi-charged ions. This has many advantages, in particular, great flexibility of use since a single device then allows the production of the two types of ions, which considerably reduces the cost of production of these ions.
- any type of magnetic field generating means can be used, coils, superconductive materials or the like. A combination of two or more of these means can also be envisaged.
- the generating means comprise at least one magnetic dipole having symmetry with respect to an axis of revolution parallel to the z axis and surrounding the chamber.
- This embodiment has the advantage of easily creating the two types of configuration for the axial component B z of the field B.
- this dipole is carried by at least one permanent magnet. Since permanent magnets are inexpensive, their use makes it possible to further reduce the cost price of the source.
- the means for modulating the magnetic field B comprise means for moving the generating means.
- the displacement of the generator means can be carried out in any direction, by translation or by rotation about any axis.
- these displacement members comprise at least one frame fixed in a position parallel to said axis of revolution z and now at least part of said generator means; the armature is provided with a tapped hole passing through it parallel to the axis of revolution z and is capable of cooperating with a threaded rod disposed parallel to the axis of revolution z, so as to cause it to move parallel to the 'z axis.
- the generator means comprise at least one coil traversed by a current of determined intensity.
- the means for modulating said magnetic field B then further comprise means for adjusting the intensity of the supply current to the coil.
