Abstract
The Fermilab Materials Test Stand was developed to test the suitability of materials for use in large liquid argon time projection chambers (TPCs). In addition to determining which materials are viable for use in TPCs, the test stand has also shown that water is especially detrimental to maintaining long electron lifetimes. The Liquid Argon Purity Demonstrator is currently under construction at Fermilab. Its goal is to show that long electron lifetimes can be achieved without evacuation of the cryostat, which is of particular interest in designing large liquid argon TPCs.
