Energy deposition and formation of nanostructures in the interaction of highly charged xenon ions with gold nanolayers

“…The Kielce EBIS facility, built by the Dreebit (Dresden, Germany), is equipped with electron beam ion trap (EBIS-A) [55]. The source supplies a wide range of slow HCI from bare ions of light elements to Ne-like and Ar-like ions of high-Z elements.…”

The physics program at the Kielce EBIS-A facility

“…In the presented facility the low-energy highly charged ions will be produced by Dresden EBIS-A ion source [1], which is third generation of the room temperature EBIT-type ion source developed by Dreebit GmbH. The design of the source is based on NdFeB permanent magnets resulting in a very compact design and small maintenance costs.…”

“…Following this progress, the Dresden EBIT/S traps/sources [1] producing highly charged ions at room-temperature using permanent magnets were developed. Their compact sizes and simple operation are advantages that come from a source design without using superconducting magnets and liquid helium, in contrast to cryogenic EBIT devices.…”

“…Their compact sizes and simple operation are advantages that come from a source design without using superconducting magnets and liquid helium, in contrast to cryogenic EBIT devices. Performance of the Dresden EBIS sources [1] as well as based on them complete irradiation facilities [2] has been already demonstrated in many experiments. In these experiments the basic electron-ion interaction processes such as direct excitation (DE), radiative recombination (RR) and dielectronic recombination (DR) were successfully studied using different measurement methods, namely, the energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry, wavelength-dispersive x-ray spectrometry, electron energy-resolved x-ray spectroscopy and timeresolved x-ray spectroscopy [3,4].…”

Detection of metastable electronic states by Penning trap mass spectrometry

“…This work was carried out with the novel high-precision Penningtrap mass spectrometer PENTATRAP at the Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik in Heidelberg. HCIs produced in a commercial electron beam ion trap DreEBIT [33] using the MIVOC technique [34] are extracted in 1 µs long bunches with a kinetic energy of a few keV/q, selected according to their charge-to-mass ratio q/m by means of a 90 • dipole magnet, and sent into the Penning traps. Prior to the trapping of the ions, their kinetic energy is reduced to a few eV/q by appropriately timed pulsed potentials applied to two cylindrical drift tubes.…”
