Abstract
Two ovens are described for the feed of vapor from solid materials in the LBL ECR source. A low temperature oven, operating up to 700 deg. C, has been used for Li, Mg, P, K, Ca, Ti and Bi. A high temperature oven operating up to 2000 deg. C, has been used for Sc, Fe, Ni, Cu, Ag, La and Tb. At the 1 eµA level the charge states from the oven beams are very close to those from gases.
