        Dear Marek,

         

        > Magnesium seems a bit close to oxygen.

        > Do you see other candidates?

         

        I contacted some colleagues who have a lot more experience with different elements than me

        (as you know I run most of the time lead).

         

        - Magnesium seems to be very easy

        - Aluminium needs a quite high oven temperature, so I do not know, if our oven can run like this and for how long, this would need some extensive tests

        - to produce Silicon one cannot use the metal directly, but there is a gaseous compound - Silane, unfortunately this is highly explosive

        - with Phosphorus both of my colleagues do not have any experience

        - for the production of Sulphur ion beams one uses generally the Sulphur oxides, which are corrosive, this is not a problem for short runs, but as we are running months this becomes a problem

         

        So, looking at this list, Magnesium really seems to be the best candidate. Second best could be Aluminium.

         

        Best regards

        Detlef
