Abstract

The importance of 98/100Mo in producing 99mTc, a radio tracer that is in ever increasing demand, is very well-known. We present here our results of experiments carried out to enrich 98/100Mo by the process of multi-photon dissociation of MoF6 under cooled conditions (58 °C). Selective excitation of the combination mode (v3 + v5) lying in the 1050 cm−1 region was possible by the 9 µm band emission lines of a CO2 laser. A maximum enrichment factor of ∼1.12 for the case of 100Mo was achieved upon irradiation with the 9P(10) line that is near-resonant to 92MoF6.
