A Ta container tube was wrapped with 3 Ta heatshields.

338 graphite discs were loaded.

one Tantalum cup (modified to fit losely) was inserted on the front end along with a Ta spring.

on the backside there is no spring but four discs glued together with PVA

The system was left to establish vacuum over night.

Good vacuum set to5e-04Torr

Bad vacuum was set to 5e-2 Torr

Total weight of system including springs = 249.07 g

OMEGA slope = 0.99

The target will be heated to 2100 C, held there for 10 hours.  The target Temperature vs Power will be tabulated and the current required to reach 2100 will  be extrapolated to avoid using OMEGA at higher temperatures.

a)  The target will be removed, weighed and inspected

b) If the target boat is still good, run again at 10A higher than previous for 2 hours.

c) The target will be removed, weighed and inspected

d) i) If the weight is the same or negligible, experiment ends

  ii) if the weight has decreased and target still intact, repeat from step b and document all measurements and settings

Quartz window was completely covered with graphite like dust.  final weight after heating = 244.57 g (a couple of discs came loose and they were weighed separately and not included in the next heating).

weighted target and added one extra heatshield because it looked like a lot of heat was escaping.  Will treat at 500A again for 2 hours.  The extra heat-shield should provide hotter environment.

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

 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.

Rick mentioned to me that the evaporator is ready for the next steps of the commissioning process.
In the chamber only the target leg heaters have current by-pass clamps on them. 
The ionizer tube heaters do not have them because these lines do not have the same configuration as the others. The current by-pass clamps will 
not fit these lines.

We may not need this for the commissioning, Rick will design and manufacture something  for this when I get back from holiday.

The water is on in all circuits except for the power supply cooling circuit.

Paused ramping

TGHT = 90A

After a few minutes the profile (noise) was still there.  Continue autoramp at 0.5A/min to 400 A on TGHT and 230A on TBHT


Friday, June 12, 2020, 15:21

IGP1= 1.97e-06 Torr trending down

TGHT = 111.5 A , 1.5 V

TBHT = 112.9 A, 1.9 V

Increase ramping speed to 1A/min to 400A on TGHT and 230A on TBHT


Friday, June 12, 2020, 20:50

OMEGA = 1754 C

IGP1= 2.5e-6 Torr

TGHT = 394.1 A, 6.6 V

TBHT = 232.8 A, 4.0 V 

Tapping to 1900 C


Friday, June 12, 2020, 21:00

OMEGA =1901 C

IGP1= 5.6e-6 Torr

TGHT = 448.3 A, 7.5 V

TBHT = 232.8 A, 4.1 V


Saturday, June 13, 2020, 00:51 

 OMEGA = 1898 C

IGP1 = 2.0e-6 Torr

TGHT = 447.2 A, 7.5 V

TBHT = 232.9 A, 4.1 V

Start cooling at -2A/ min for TGHT and -1A/min for TBHT

Total number of foils: 528 ( including 10 analysis discs)

Weight without springs = 1521.9 g (includes heatshields and T bar)

Total length packed 18.1 cm (including 10 analysis discs that will be removed)

container has 3 Ta heat shields.

No endcaps inserted to facilitate out-gassing

Ta coated spring at  ends

Initially to ramp TGHT and TBHT to 50A at0.5 A/min

Then heat automatically heat to OMEGA ~1400 C , then continue to max 530A on TGHT and 230A on TBHT (Omega slope set = 0.990)

Then temperature = 1800C

TBHT will be set fixed at 230 A (max).  TBHT heated manually and automatically to max.

Good vac at 3.00 e -4 Torr

Bad vac at 5.00 e-2 Torr

 IGP1= 1.0 e-06 Torr at start of initial ramp


IGP1 = 5.7 e-06 Torr

TGHT = 50.0 A, 0.6 V

TBHT = 50.0A, 0.5 V

continue to ramp up at 0.5A/min to 200A


Friday, February 11, 2022, 07:59 

IGP1=3.0e-07 Torr and stable

TGHT= 201A, 2.8V

TBHT = 201A, 2.6V

continue autoramp at 1A/min to 230A on TBHT and 450A on TGHT


Friday, February 11, 2022, 12:41

IGP1= 6.6e-05 Torr

TGHT= 450A, 6.5V

TBHT= 232A, 3.1V

OMEGA = 1258C

Allowing pressure to drop.  Will continue ramp up when [pressure around 9-e-6 Torr


Friday, February 11, 2022, 13:59

IGP1= 2.4e-05 Torr

Will ramp up at 1A/min to 550A on TGHT


Friday, February 11, 2022, 15:54  

IGP1= 2.4e-05 Torr

TGHT= 551.0A, 8.3V

TBHT=232A, 3.2V

OMEGA= 1426 C

ramp to 600 A @ 2A/min


Friday, February 11, 2022, 16:23

TGHT= 600.1A, 9.3V

TBHT= 232A, 3.2V

OMEGA = 1612C

ramp to 689 @2A/min to 1800 C as projected in regression plot attached 


Friday, February 11, 2022, 21:20 

Evap has been at 1800 +/- 20 C for 4 hours and 10 minutes

OMEGA 1802 C

TGHT = 689 A, 11.0V

TBHT=232.8 A, 3.26V

IGP1= 1.3e-05 Torr and stabilizing.  

will start cool down at -2A/min TGHT and -1A/min TBHT
