An injection pulse length of 5 μsec in the KEK digital accelerator is expected, because it has a revolution time period of 12 μsec for a low energy ion, where one turn injection is employed. A beam chopper is required. A longitudinal chopper called “Einzel lens chopper” has been newly developed for this purpose. The function of chopping is implemented in the Einzel lens that is placed right after the ion source for beam optics matching downstream. The longitudinal chopper is realized by controlling the Einzel lens middle-electrode potential to gate the ion beam stream. Marx Generator is used to generate a negative high voltage pulse which is added to the positive high voltage for blocking an ion beam. All devises are installed near the ion source and just upstream the post-acceleration of 190 kV. X-ray, secondary electrons or out gassing can be minimized. These features are big advantage. Finite time periods of rising/falling of the chopper pulse voltage induces a large momentum deviation in the chopped pulse head/tail. Fortunately, its size is largely reduced due to the post-acceleration then the chopper is being operated very stably in beam commissioning. 事情からビームチョッパーが必須となる。
