Abstract
ABSTRACTReduced graphene oxide (rGO) films can be employed as ion strippers in an accelerator. They show some advantages with respect to the graphite foils, due to their high thermal and electrical conductivity, low density, high mechanical resistance and high stability. Thin graphene oxide (GO) films with a sub-micron thickness have been synthesized and transformed into reduced GO (rGO) by ion beam irradiations. Physical characterizations of the pristine and ion irradiated GO films have been performed. Measurements of stripping efficiency have been carried out by using helium, lithium, carbon and oxygen ion beams. The rGO stripper films demonstrate a significantly high charge production, comparable to that of the graphite films but with the advantage of a longer lifetime.
