Abstract

An ion source that is capable of different modes of operation is disclosed. A solid target may be disposed in the arc chamber. The ion source may have several gas inlets, in communication with different gasses. When operating in a first mode, the ion source may supply a first gas, such as a halogen containing gas. When operating in a second mode, the ion source may supply an organoaluminium gas. Ions having single charges may be created in the first mode, while ions having multiple charges may be created in the second mode. In some embodiments, the solid target may be retractable.
