Abstract :
A simple method to focus ion beams using the "Inverse Pinch Ion Diode" with a flat anode has been studied. In this diode, an electric field in the diode is used as an electrostatic lens to focus ion beans. Ion beams were focused at 120 mm from an anode and it\´s power density of 0.1 GW/cm/sup 2/ obtained. And the focusing point of ion beams can be changed by varying the diameters of an anode and a cathode.
