Welcome Message from the Chair

Abstract

The Korea Basic Science Institute (KBSI) is very happy and especially honored to be hosting the 22 International Workshop on ECR ion sources, ECRIS2016, which is the first workshop held in Korea. Due to the effort on the development of 28GHz superconducting ECRIS, we have been decided a host institution of the ECRIS2016, at the IAC of ECRIS2014. Following that the ignition of the first ECR plasma was generated in 2014; recently, we have successfully extracted the various ion beams from KBSI-ECRIS. For further performance improvement of our system, it is now on the overhaul after 2 years operation. For the optimization of the system, some modification of plasma chamber and so on are ongoing that will be provided better performance of the system.
