Vacuum insulation of a large negative ion source for fusion application is experimentally examined, which is characterized by large-area grids with multiple-apertures. The experimental results showed that sustainable voltages were found to be dominated by the electric field profiles generated around the apertures and grid area. These empirical laws are applied to the modification of the ion source.

Times Cited Count:17 Percentile:60.7(Instruments & Instrumentation)Production of 500 keV, 3 A beams has been successfully achieved in the JT-60 negative by overcoming the low voltage holding of the accelerator. Toward the design of next ion source, database for the voltage holding capability based on experimental results is required and obtained. As a result, the voltage holding capability was found to vary with 67 N power of -0.15 and with 31.7 S power of -0.125 where N is the aperture number and S is the anode surface area. When N = 1100 and S = 2 m are applied to the design of JT-60SA ion source, the factors C are estimated to be 23 and 29, respectively. Therefore, the influence of the local electric field around the apertures is stronger than that of the surface area.
