Abstract :
A new type of ion-electron source based on a hollow anode discharge is presented. In such a type of discharge the maximum plasma density is localized at the exit aperture. Constant hydrogen ion current in excess of 1 mA has been obtained with the 1 mm diam. exit aperture and the extraction voltage of 3 kV.
