Zusammenfassung:Highlights ao Controlled ion implantation of In-113 into thin Al substrate. ao Production of In-114m (half life=50 days) by neutron irradiation. ao Use of In-114m as a source of electron lines and continuum for calibrations. ao Source reactivation by short neutron irradiation. The preparation of 114m In sources of conversion electrons in the energy range 162a190keV and I2 continuum with a 1989keV endpoint via ion implantation of 113In into Al substrates and subsequent irradiation by thermal and epi-thermal neutrons in a nuclear reactor is described.
