The 14.5 GHz ECR ion source of the ATOMKI is a stand-alone device producing highly charged ion beams for ion-surface experiments and a variety of low charged plasmas and beams for plasma physics studies and for practical applications. In the past two years we performed plasma diagnostics measurements using Langmuir-probes and X-ray camera. Langmuir-probe results allowed estimating the plasma potential close to the resonance zone. The studying of X-ray pictures of Xe-Ar plasmas helps understanding the gas-mixing phenomena. A mixture plasma of fullerene and ferrocene was generated and FeC60 hybrid molecules were detected in the extracted beam.
