ABSTRACT:
A closed electron drift ion source comprising a main annular channel for ionization and acceleration that is open at its downstream end, and that has at least an inside wall constituted by a material that is electrically conductive. Terminal parts taken to a potential that is lower than that of an anode extend the downstream end of the annular channel. The ion source also includes a hollow cathode, ionizable gas feed means associated with the cathode, and with the anode, anode bias means, and means for creating a magnetic field in the main annular channel. The invention is particularly applicable to industrial treatment methods.
