Abstract
During the past year, the Chalk River target laboratory has developed several new methods for materials preparation related to nuclear research. These include the preparation of large-area tritium sources for paper document imaging and titanium and tungsten foil windows for water targets and high-temperature ion sources, respectively. The fabrication of ultra-thin titanium tritide sources suitable for a neutrino-mass experiment is being investigated. The preparation of radioactive sources by vacuum sublimation has also been carried out to test the focusing properties and to obtain the response function of the Chalk River iron-free β spectrometer, which will be used in the neutrino-mass experiment.
