Abstract
A neon gas target has been developed to produce radioactive fluorine. Small CF4 impurities were added to the neon gas and the recovery efficiency of 18F-labeled CF4 has been measured as a function of the impurity level. Extraction efficiencies up to 90% have been obtained, which makes this technique to produce and extract radioactive fluorine from a production target a powerful method to generate intense radioactive 17F and 18F beams, using the 20Ne(p,α)17F and 20Ne(d,α)18F reactions, respectively.
