CHARGED PARTICLE SEPARATION APPARATUS AND CHARGED PARTICLE BOMBARDMENT APPARATUS

摘要

A charged particle separation apparatus that separates ionized gas clusters is disclosed. The charged particle separation apparatus includes three or more electric field applying parts arranged in an incident direction of an ionized gas cluster, wherein each of the electric field applying parts includes a pair of electrodes; an electric power source configured to supply alternating-current electric voltages to the three or more electric field applying parts in such a manner that an alternating-current electric voltage applied across one pair of the electrodes of one of the three or more electric field applying parts is different in phase from an alternating-current voltage applied across another pair of the electrodes of an adjacent one of the three or more electric field applying parts; and a plate including an opening in an extension of the incident direction.
