Abstract

In order to measure the peak current and the beam transversal distribution of an ampere-scale microsecond single-pulse ion beam, a novel single shot beam diagnostic device based on pepper-pot technique, which is a combination of Faraday cup and pepper-pot measurement facility, was developed at Peking University (PKU) [1]. It consists of a main Faraday cup with a pepper-pot mask at its bottom, and a Faraday cup array locating 3 mm away from the pepper-pot mask. This device has been tested at the PKU LEBT test bench and the measurement results are consistent with the results acquired by the Allison scanner. By replacing the Faraday cup array with a fluorescent screen and a CCD camera, this device becomes a facility that not only has the ability to measure the total beam current and the beam profile, but also has the capability to measure the beam emittance for CW or pulsed ion beams. Details will be presented in this paper.
