[en] Research in low-energy nuclear physics demands low-energy charged particle beams with lower energy spread and lower emittance. The production of high current beams with lower emittance is an open problem, till now in the field of accelerator physics. Understanding the requirements of nuclear astrophysics and other low energy applications, a novel ion source design has been developed to meet the demands of high current with lower energy spread and emittance. This has been achieved through a hybrid ion source design having a combined ECR Glow discharge mode of operation. The ECR modes have been generated with a TEM01 class rectangular waveguide design. Further the plasma is confined into a small volume by the externally configured magnetic field. The emittance blow up has been reduced by applying the background gas injection in perpendicular to the beam direction. The details are discussed herein
