Commissioning of a radiofrequency quadrupole cooler-buncher for collinear laser spectroscopy
摘要
A RadioFrequency Quadrupole (RFQ) cooler-buncher system was developed and implemented in a collinear laser spectroscopy setup. This system converts a continuous ion beam into short bunches while enhancing the beam quality and reducing the energy spread. The functionality of the RFQ cooler buncher was verified through offline tests with stable rubidium and indium beams delivered from a surface ion source and a laser ablation ion source, respectively. Bunched ion beams with a full width at half maximum of approximately 2
