Radiofrequency and 2.45 GHz electron cyclotron resonance H− volume production ion sources

The volume production of negative hydrogen ions ( ${{\rm{H}}}^{-}$ ) in plasma ion sources is based on dissociative electron attachment (DEA) to rovibrationally excited hydrogen molecules (H _2 ), which is a two-step process requiring both, hot electrons for ionization, and vibrational excitation of...
