Abstract
There is provided a method of ion beam generation wherein a plurality of opposing targets are sputtered by plasma generated in a space confined by these targets and ionized particles thereby generated are led outside of the above space in a given direction under presence of an electric field. In connection to this method, an ion beam generator is disclosed comprising a plurality of targets, a plasma generating means to generate plasma necessary to sputter these targets in a space confined by these targets and a control electrode to lead ionized particles generated by sputtering with the above plasma outside of such space under control of their energy.
