He음이온 생성을 위한 Rb전하교환기의 제작 및 특성실험

Construction of Rb Charge Exchange Cell and Characteristic Experiment for He- Ion Production

SNU 1.5-MV 직렬형 반데그라프 가속기의 헬륨음이온원으로서 Rb 전하교환기를 제작하였다. 교환기의 최적운전조건을 결정하기 위해 특성실험을 수행하였다. Duoplasmatron 이온원에서 인출된 1~10 keV 에너지의 첼륨양이온빔을 Rb 증기속에 통과시킴으로써 2 단계 전하교환반응, 즉 $He^{+}\;+\;Rb\;{\rightarrow}\;He^{\circ\ast}\;+\;Rb^{+}\;과\;He^{\circ\ast}\;+\;Rb\;{\rightarrow}\;He^{-}\;+\;Rb^{+}$에 의해 헬륨음이온을 얻었다 실험결과로부터 헬륨음이온의 최대생성률이 헬륨양이온에너지가 7 keV일때 얻어짐을 알 수 있었다. Oven과 Canal의 최적온도는 각각 $370^{\circ}C{\;}와\;95^{\circ}C$로 결정되었다. 최적동작조건하에서 최대 헬륨음이온 생성률은 $2.42\pm002\;%$이었다. 본 전하교환기는 헬륨음이온생성에 효과적인 장치임이 입증되었다.

The Rb charge exchange cell is constructed as the He- ion source of the SNU 1.5- MV Tandem Van do Graaff accelerator. The characteristic experiment is carried out in order to determine the optimum operational conditions of the cell. The $He^{+}$ ion beam with the energy of 1~10 keV, extracted from the duoplasmatron ion source, is passed through the Rb vapor to become He- ions by the two step charge exchange reaction, i.e., $He^{+}\;+\;Rb\;{\rightarrow}\;He^{\circ\ast}\;+\;Rb^{+}\;and\;He^{\circ\ast}\;+\;Rb\;{\rightarrow}\;He^{-}\;+\;Rb^{+}$. From the experimental results, it is found that the maximum fractional yield of $He^{-}$ ions is produced at He+ ion energy of 7 keV. The optimum temperatures of the oven and the canal are determined to be $370\;^{\circ}C{\;}and{\;}95^{\circ}C$ respectively. Under the optimum operational condition the maximum fractional yield of $He^{-}$ ions is $2.42\pm0.02%$ This charge exchange cell is proved to be an effective system for the production of He- ions.
