In our conceptual approach, we will try to propose a tool for a quick and simple supplier selection under the method mentioned above.

In general, MCI beams are largely produced by electron beam ion source (EBIS) [1], laser ion source (LIS) [2], or high-frequency (mostly >5 GHz) electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) ion source [3]. Among these, only ECR ion source can operate in the continuous wave (CW) mode, while EBIS and LIS only support pulses. In addition, ECR ion source with lower frequency (mostly 2.45 GHz) are required primarily for generating single charge state ions, because the corresponding ECR field (875 Gs) is not sufficiently strong for MCI generation [4].展开更多
