The application discloses a method for measuring reverse positive
ion current of a high-power negative
ion source, and relates to the field of high-current
ion source diagnosis.The method comprises the following steps: obtaining the cooling
water flow and the temperature of the cooling water on each component of the high-power negative
ion source; designing and manufacturing a specific back plate for measuring the profile of the reverse positive
ion current; measuring the real-time temperature rise value and the flow of the cooling water on the
ion source component, and analyzing the
heat deposition on each component; measuring the temperature rise value and the flow of the cooling water on each component under the condition of beam extraction, analyzing the
heat deposition on each component, comparing and analyzing the
power deposition change on the component bombarded by the reverse positive
ion current with and without beam extraction, and obtaining the reverse positive
ion current power under the operation parameter; and changing the operation parameter of the negative
ion source alone, repeating the experiment, and obtaining the influence law of the parameter on the reverse positive ion current.The application provides a basis for the design and optimization of the back plate of the ion source
expansion chamber and the back plate of the Faraday shield and the safe and stable operation of the high-power negative ion source.
