Abstract

A remotely-driven internal target system with an improved stationary target head and manually controlled target transfer assembly was constructed. Methodology and techniques for the preparation of targets utilized for the routine production of ⁶⁷Ga, ¹¹¹In, ¹²³I, ¹²⁴I, and ²⁰¹Tl with a CS-30 cyclotron are described. Experiences in recovery of isotopically enriched target materials are detailed for plating, radiochemical separation, and target recovery for 21 cycles with ⁶⁸Zn; 18 cycles with ¹¹²Cd; 40 cycles with ¹²⁴Te; and 24 cycles with ²⁰³Tl. This represented 84, 72, 145, and 196 targets for ⁶⁷Ga, ¹¹¹In, ¹²³I + ¹²⁴I, and ²⁰¹Tl, respectively. Data on target stability under routine production conditions at high currents are summarized.
