We have considered the accessibility condition of electromagnetic and electrostatic waves propagating in an electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) ion source (ECRIS) plasma and then investigated experimentally their correspondence relationships with production of multicharged ions. It has been clarified that there exists an efficient configuration of ECR zones for producing multicharged ion beams and has been suggested that a new resonance, i.e., upper hybrid resonance (UHR), must have occurred. We have been trying to perform advanced experiments with 4-6 GHz X-mode microwaves to the 2.45 GHz ECRIS plasma, and we have succeeded in enhancing the production of multicharged ions by launching X-mode microwaves of these bands. Furthermore, at the same time, we have observed sharp increases in electron energy distribution functions in the ECRIS plasma by means of probe methods. It has been concluded that the UHRs must have occurred when applying multiplex microwaves with their frequencies away from those frequencies for ECR in the ECRIS. In this paper, we will describe in brief the theoretical background and the results of these new experiments.
