| Description | Journal: Journal of Physics E: Scientific Instruments Microwave discharge ion sources have commonly been used to produce ions from gases. The authors report the extension of such a source to the production of ions from a non-gaseous material without the complication of a magnetic field. The source is simple in design and easily constructed. Discharges which were initiated in argon produced $Na^{+}$ ions from both sodium iodide and pure sodium. The absolute and relative rates of production of $Na^{+}$ ions were found to vary greatly with the discharge pressure and incident microwave power. Operating conditions ranging from 0.016 to 0.064 mbar (1.6-6.4 Pa) and from 20 to 60 W were tested. The percentage of all the ions which were $Na^{+}$ ions in discharges with sodium iodide was as high as 17% while with pure sodium it was as high as 89%. |
