Overcoming the space-charge dilemma in low-energy heavy ion beams via a multistage acceleration lens system
M. Nishiura, T. Ido, M. Okamura +3
Low-energy heavy-ion beams are fundamentally limited by severe space-charge divergence, which constrains the transportable beam current to a few microamperes in conventional electr…
