ABSTRACT:
An apparatus employs two spaced apart dipole magnets. An ion beam containing carbon of mass 2, 13 and 14 is focused by an Einzel lens and is directed into a first dipole magnet. The first magnet causes the beam to bend approximately 70 degrees, which separates the mass 12, 13 and 14 ions while at the same time focusing them in the X direction or deflection plane. The ions exit the first dipole magnet and pass through a blanking plate which can selectively remove one or two of the beams of mass 12, 13 and 14 ions. After leaving the first bending magnet, the mass 12 and 14 beams pass through a steering device so the trajectories of the mass 12 and 14 ions are deflected a few degrees to bring them parallel to the mass 13 ion beam. The parallel ion beams next pass through an electrostatic slot lens which focuses the beams in the direction out of the bending plane. After passing through the slot lens, the mass 12 and 14 beams are deflected in like amount to the deflection at the first steering device. The beams then pass through a second blanking plate and enter a second dipole magnet which bends the beams to approximately 70 degrees wherein the beams are combined where they exit from the second dipole magnet. The combined beam enters an Einzel lens where the beam is focused in preparation for injection into a tandem accelerator.
