Abstract: A triode extraction system is designed for a dual hollow cathode ion source being developed at the Institute of Heavy Ion Physics, Peking University. Basic parameters of the plasma are selected after examining the operation principle of the ion source, then the triode extraction system is designed and optimized by using software PBGUNS (for Particle Beam GUN Simulations). The physical design of the system is given in this paper.
