Abstract

At energies £15 MeV, ⁶⁴Cu is most readily produced using the ⁶⁴Ni(p,n)⁶⁴Cu reaction. Space restrictions in the TR-PET target selector required a target system of compact design that would still allow the quick and easy removal of the irradiated target. The target consists of a ⁶⁴Ni-plated rhodium disc held in place by a threaded cooling assembly. For removal, the cooling block is rotated slightly, allowing the disc to fall into a shielding container. The nickel is dissolved and the ⁶⁴Cu separated by anion exchange or electrochemical deposition. Yields of up to 330 mCi of radiochemically pure ⁶⁴Cu have been obtained.
