The negative ion beam extraction from the multi-hole ion source is considered. Results of numerical simulations (based on PIC method) of the influence of transversal magnetic field applied near the extraction grid (filter field), and in the plasma chamber volume (confining field) are presented. The application of confining field results in significantly increased negative ions yield.
