Target boat with TaC coating, inside covered with a 0.002 inches thick Ta foil, wrapped with a 0.002 inches thick Ta foil, contains a Ta foil with TaO coating.

See John's Ipad for their recipes.

Evaporator #2 is now auto-ramping overnight at 0.2 A/min, up to 830 A, with the maximum voltage limited at 14 V, between 2.00e-05 (Good vacuum) and 3.00e-05 Torr (Bad vacuum).

Monday, July 30, 2012, 15:38

The evaporator was used for the processing the NiO target for 8 days and it was discovered today that there was a puddle of water underneath the chiller. 

The cover of the chiller was removed and some water around the plumbing was found (see attachment #1). 

Will continue to keep running the chiller to see if there is more water leaking out...

 Sunday, July 22, 2012, 20:30

The NiO target materials were loaded into the container today.  

Total discs = 500, (10 discs/pack) 

length (after loaded) = 9.0cm 

Target container is wrapped with Ta-heat shields, and will be removed after the sintering process. 

One regular end cap is inserted (with Ni-foil inserted as a divider).  The caps, however, are very loose (tried 2 caps and still loose).  Hopefully the thermo diffusion bonding will seal the cap... 

The other end is inserted with a D-cap for out-gassing proposes, and will be replaced with the regular end-cap after the process. 

(see attachment#1)

Sunday, July 22, 2012, 20:48 

The camber has been pumped down and currently IG1=1.3e-6 Torr.

The HS cooling water was turned on and no leaks were detected.  

TGHT and TBHT were stepped up to 50A. 

Auto-ramping is initiated at 0.2A/min for TGHT max = 250A, TBHT max = 230A. 

 Thursday, July 26, 2012, 23:31

TGHT and TBHT have reached to 250A (local @ 242A/2.88V) and 230A, respectively, and have stayed for ~4hrs (see attachment#2)  

Currently, IGP1 = 4.9e-7 Torr, IGP2 = 3.5e-7 Torr, CG1B = 13mTorr. 

Initiating auto-cool down at 2A/min.  

 Monday, July 30, 2012, 15:11

The chamber was vented and the target was removed.

There was significant condensation oily fluid coated Cu-heatshield lid and around the ionizer opening.

Overall, the target looks very good.  The NiO target material was nicely sintered.  No shrinkage or loose particles were observed (see attachment #3).

The endcap, however, was not properly fitted and it just fell off, (see attachment #4). 

Both ends of the target are currently opened; the expension tool for the endcap is in order and hopefully this will solve the problem.

The target is being stored in the fumehood

Thursday, July 19, 2012, 16:58

The target container was coated with TaC. 

It's wrapped with 3 layers of Ta as the heat-shield, including the backblock.

TGHT will be ramped up to 580A at 0.2A/min.

TBHT will be ramped up to 230A at 0.2A/min.

Currently, IGP1 = 1.5e-6 Torr.  BP = 15mTorr

 Friday, July 20, 2012, 13:56

TGHT and TBHT reached to 580A & 230A, respectively, and stayed for ~ 2hrs. 

Measured temperature at the ionizer tube to be 1630C.

Cooling down in process at 2A/min...

 Sunday, July 22, 2012, 20:53

The chamber was vented earlier around 14:00hr.  

The target container looks good! 

Tuesday, July 17, 2012, 15:45

Target boat is filled with TaC coated regular- and D-endcaps. 

The boat is wrapped with a Ta heat-shield. 

Chamber is being pumped down, currently at 5e-6 Torr.

Tuesday, July 17, 2012, 15:58

Heat-shield cooling water valve opened; no leaks detected.

Initiated TGHT auto-ramping at 0.5A/min, set TGHT max at 580A.

 Wednesday, July 18, 2012, 10:44

Yesterday evening, the target heater tripped off a few times due to high vacuum excursion.  The TGHT ramping rate was low to 0.2A/min.  The current was ramped up sturdily to 500A this morning.  

Wednesday, July 18, 2012, 10:46

Increased ramping rate to 2A/min.  Vacuum currently at 2.2e-6 Torr.

 Wednesday, July 18, 2012, 16:18

TGHt has reached to 580A and stayed for about 5 hrs. 

Cooling down in process...  2A/min for TGHT --> 0A.

 Thursday, July 19, 2012, 10:31

TGHT reached to 0A. 

Evaporator is off. 

Venting chamber... 

Thursday, July 12, 2012, 17:29

NiO was sprayed on Ni foil.

Average/discs: mass= 0.075g, thickness=0.076mm, density = 7.023g/cm3.

4 set of samples were loaded onto the targetboat (coated/sintered with TaC).  A piece of Ta foil was used as the under layer (see attachment #1).

A 0.002" thick Ta foil was wrapped around the container as the heat-shield.

The chamber was pumped down to 5.0e-6 Torr before the cooling water valve was opened; no leaks was detected.

For this process, the target heater will only go up to 250A (~1100C), with auto-ramping rate at 0.5A/min.

The heater has been stepped up to 50A, local 32A/ 0.23V.  The vacuum reached to max 1.6e-5 Torr, and it's coming down.

Thursday, July 12, 2012, 17:51

Auto-ramping initiated...

 Friday, July 13, 2012, 09:42

TGHT reached to 250A and stayed for 6 hrs (see attachment #2).  At that current, the target wasn't glowing so the temperature could not be measured. 

Initiated auto-cooling at 2A/min. 

Friday, July 13, 2012, 11:00  

TGHT reached to 65A.  Stopped the auto-cooling process and manually tapped down the p/s to 0A.  

Vacuum is stable at 5.7e-7 Torr.  

In the next 30 min or so, the chamber will be vented and the NiO target material will be taken out for inspection.

The NiO discs were heated up to 1500C at 560A.  The target heater was lowered in steps and the temperature was measured.  At 320A, the target container was ~1110C.  (see attachment #1) 

There was a sign of resistant on the target container as the p/s voltage started to go up at a higher rate.  (see attachment#2, 3, 4 for the archived striptool).

Unfortunately, the target container was broken; it was most likely reacted with the Ni.  (see attachment#5)

So.... the possible solution?!  TRY coating the container with Ta2O5.  Will discuss more in the Friday Jun 22 meeting.

After the re-conditioning, the target's end-caps vaporized.  This is something happened before (see elog entries below):

https://elog.triumf.ca/TIS/Evaporator_1/20

https://elog.triumf.ca/TIS/Evaporator_1/22

The caps were removed and yellow crystals were observed. (see attachment#1).

The D-caps will be inserted in both ends and will be re-conditioned again to see if the yellow crystals can be removed at high temperature.

Evap2 was vented out and the pellets were taken out of the boat and examined.

The six pellets are cracked and have a greyish colour. The cracking is probably caused by the instant cooling and reheating when the system tripped on Sunday morning.

The light grey colour and white spots suggest that the sintering process was not completed and so the shrinkage cannot be determined.

A new batch of BeO pellets will have to be prepared and sintered in order to determine the dimensions of the final die.

Monday, May 28, 2012, 11:08

It was discovered this morning that the Evaporator #2 chiller was leaking water from the bottom (see attachment 1).  A puddle of water was formed and eventually found its way down to the Hotcell. 

The evaporator was running over the weekend for the BeO pellets process.  The TGHT is now off and the chiller will be inspected...

Increased TBHT voltage to 5V, and TGHT to 15V.  Currently, TBHT =83A, 0.986V, TGHT= 144A, 1.65V, IGP1 = 5.2e-7 Torr, IGP2 = 4.3e-7 Torr. 

Continue ramping up...

TGHT and TBHT were ramped up to 830A/13.65V (local), and 235A/3.85V, respectively.  The target was conditioned over the long weekend.

Tuesday, May 15, 2012, 12:24 The HP-SIS SiC target was made on Nov 03, 2010.  The target consists of 405 discs, 18.5cm in length.  It was sintered in the Evaporator#1.  This target is going into Evap#2 for re-conditioning.  It is currently being pumped down.

The target is wrapped with only one heat shield.

Evaporator #2 Target Heater is now auto-ramping at 0.5 A/min, up to 820 A, with the maximum voltage limited at 2 V, between 2.00e-05 (Good vacuum) and 3.00e-05 Torr (Bad vacuum). Tube Heater is auto-ramping at 0.5 A/min, up to 230 A, with the maximum voltage limited at 1 V. See attachments.

The connector was re-tighten.  The water valve was opened, and no water leaks were found.

The tube heater power supply current readback and setpoint are not matching.  Ray Dube checked the power supply and confirmed that it is faulty.  He will replace a functional p/s tomorrow.

The original p/s was replaced with a new one and there was still a discrepancy between the readback and the setpoint.  After checking with the drawings for the ITE/ITW tube heaters, it was confirmed that the connections for the Evap#2 tube heater control were wrong.  (see attachment 1).  The connections were corrected and the power supply is now operational.
