Resumo

The thin Zr target production is essential to achieve good quality of the data in the measurements of the 90Zr(6Li,d)94Mo reaction. The methodology was developed in order to minimize light nuclei contamination, as 12C and 16O and to improve the zirconium/contaminant ratio in the target and avoid further oxidation. Tests were performed with the EDWARDS-E12E and UNIVEX450 systems in the Target São Paulo Laboratory by the electron bombardment technique. Up to now, the most favorable test points to the production of sandwiches of thin golden films (Au+Zr+Au) using the UNIVEX450 system with a refrigerated copper crucible and a very clean and controlled environment.
