Abstract
The results of use of a cold hollow cathode with a multipole magnetic field in a duoplasmatron-type ion source are described. The operating parameters of a duoplasmatron with the developed cathode and a duoplasmatron with a cold hollow two-cylinder cathode are compared. It is shown that the use of a cathode with a multipole magnetic field offers additional possibilities of reducing the operating gas pressure in an ion source and contributes to an increase in both the current and the phase density of the ion-beam current at the output of a charged-particle source and to a decrease in the phase volume of this beam.
