PILIS: post-ISOCELE laser isobar separation- a high efficiency apparatus for laser spectroscopy

Abstract

A new experimental setup PILIS II has been installed on line with the ISOCELE isotope separator (IPN, Orsay). The mass-separated ions are slowed from 30 kV to 500 V and implanted on a graphite collecting disk. The atoms are then thermally desorbed at the implantation region by Nd-YAG laser pulses and selectively ionized by three laser beams. The ions created are mass identified by a time-of-flight (TOF) system. Two versions of the TOF system with accelerating voltage of 1.5 and 30 kV were used to carry out hyperfine structure measurements. With the 30 kV system we obtained an overall detection efficiency of 8.4 10{sup -5}. First measurements were performed on very light gold isotopes. It has been shown that PILIS II is well adapted to study very short half-life isotopes (T{sub 1/2} {approx}1s).
