abhilash@nsc.ernet.in This laboratory is one of the user support laboratories which provides facilities and necessary help to the user community for the preparation of thin films and targets required to perform experiments using the Pelletron, in the areas of
Nuclear Physics.
Atomic Physics.
Materials Science.
More than 100 thin films and targets are prepared per year in this laboratory.
Along with the preparation of targets, the laboratory also prepares 5 microgram/cm 2 thick, free standing carbon foils used as stripper for the 15UD Pelletron accelerator. Approximately 600-800 stripper foils are used in the Pelletron in a year.
The facilities for thin film and target preparation:
Other facilities:
Vertically downwards clean air laminar flow with chemical exhaust
Off-line target thickness measurement setup
