We demonstrate an ion acceleration scheme capable of simultaneously focusingand accelerating a multispecies ion beam with monoenergetic spectra to a fewmicron radius. The focal length and ion mean energy can be independentlycontrolled: the former by using a different front-surface shape and the latterby tuning the laser-plasma parameters. We interpret the results using simplemodels and validate the results using first-principles simulations. The schemeis applicable to different laser transverse profiles and multi-ion speciestarget, and limiting factors for the ion focusing are delineated. The generatedion bean exhibits high charge, low emittance , and high energy flux and is ofinterest to various applications including inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF),high flux neutron generation, and biomedical applications.
