Claims19
An ion gun comprising:
- a first electromagnet;
- and
- an electret disposed external to and at an end of the first electromagnet,
- wherein the first electromagnet defines a first inner compartment, and wherein the first electromagnet is configured to move ions through the first inner compartment and through the electret as the ion gun functions.

An ion gun comprising:
- a first electromagnet defining a first hollow core;
- a second electromagnet defining a second hollow core;
- and
- an electret comprising multiple conductors that run adjacent to each other and that have alternating polarities, wherein the electret is configured to provide an electrostatic field as the ion gun functions.
