The Linear Accelerator to be used for the Fusion Materials Irradiation Test Facility (FMIT) will require an injection energy of 100 keV at a dc current level of 125 mA. Studies are being made on a pre-prototype version of this injector, including performance tests of both a single aperture reflex-arc ion source and a cusp-field source. A single stage, high-gradient extraction system is used prior to mass analysis in a 90/sup 0/ bending magnet. A two-stage beam steering device to measure beam emittance under full beam power has been designed and constructed. To avoid production of neutrons, all prototype tests are run with H/sub 2//sup +/ ions rather than D/sup +/ ions.
