Preparation and characterization of a sandwiched target of enriched neodymium oxide
Description
The preparation of enriched neodymium oxide targets sandwiched between two carbon foils is discussed. The concentration of oxygen in a prepared target was measured using low-angle Rutherford scattering and elastic recoil detection analysis ERDA technique. The analysis indicated that the prepared target had 31 at.% of oxygen as compared to the expected concentration of 60 at.% relative to neodymium. It shows that neodymium oxide loses oxygen during evaporation. (orig.)
