Towards large and powerful radio frequency driven negative ion sources for fusion

Towards large and powerful radio frequency driven negative ion sources for fusion

The ITER neutral beam system will be equipped with radio-frequency (RF) negative ion sources, based on the IPP Garching prototype source design. Up to 100 kW at 1 MHz is coupled to the RF driver, out of which the plasma expands into the main source chamber. Compared to arc driven sources, RF sources...
