State of the art in the development and application of gas cluster ion sources is considered. The mechanisms of neutral cluster formation, the techniques applied to study their flows and regularities of ionization and the principles of mass separation of ion beams are discussed. Design features of some cluster ion beam sources intended for various applied and academic studies are considered. Use of such sources for controlled modification of surface topography, ultra-shallow ion implantation, development of analytical techniques, and stimulation of surface chemical reactions is analyzed.
