Abstract
The addition of electrons in both rf plasma and ion beam extracted fro m a rf ion source enhanced the source's performance and beam optics. T he increase of plasma intensity increases the charge state of the extr acted ions. The mixing of electrons with the ions within the ion beam decreases the space charge effect on beam expansion.
