Abstract
The transmission of 1Â MeV proton microbeam through a single, cylindrically shaped, micrometre-sized polytetrafluoroethylene capillary was studied. The capillary axis was tilted with respect to the axis of the incident ion beam. The tilting, the aspect ratio of the capillary and the small beam divergence disabled the geometrical transmission of the beam through the target. The time dependence of the intensity, the charge-state and the deflection of the transmitted beam were investigated. We found that pure guided transmission of a MeV/amu energy ion beam is possible through an insulator capillary.
