A permanent magnet (PM) ECR ion source and following low energy beam transport (LEBT) system with the capability to deliver two-charge-state heavy-ion beams for high-power linacs is being prototyped at Argonne. The injector consists of the PM ECR ion source, a transport line with beam diagnostics including emittance measurements and a multi-harmonic buncher. Recently the ECR ion source was installed on a high voltage platform to increase the accelerating voltage up to the design value of 100 kV. The unique feature of the multi-q injector layout is that the charge separation is performed out f the platform after acceleration of the multicomponent ion beam. Two-charge-state beams are analyzed and recombined using an achromatic bending system. Improvements of the PM ECR performance and beam optics studies based on measurements of various heavy-ion beams will be discussed in this paper.
