Abstract

The investigation and development of methods of preparation of nuclear targets which have been used for nuclear physics experiments at IMP since 1975 is described. Targets of more than 40 elements, including natural elements, enriched isotopes, lanthanides and actinides, have been produced. Equipment and procedures have been developed for many preparation methods such as electroplating, focused heavy-ion beam sputtering, centrifugal precipitation, rolling, electron bombardment, and resistance heating. The analysis of target films contaminated by oil vapor and the equipment for preparing thin, metallic self-supporting target foils without oil vapor contamination are also described.
