摘要:
A ion source comprises: a chamber, an injection to inject matter into the chamber, wherein said matter comprises at least a first species, a tip with an apex located in the chamber, wherein the apex has a surface made of a metallic second species, a generator to generate ions of said species, and a regulation system adapted to set operative conditions of the chamber to alternatively generate ions from the gaseous first species, and ions from the non-gaseous metallic second species.
