Thin carbon stripper foils used in high-intensity proton accelerators and heavy-ion accelerators must have long lifetimes. Thin carbon foils were fabricated by ion-beam sputtering using reactive and inert gas ions. The lifetime of the foils was measured using a KEK 650-keV high-intensity DC H− (negative hydrogen ion) beam; changes in the foil thickness and surface deformations during irradiation were investigated. The lifetime of a typical stripper foil fabricated by heavy-ion-beam (Ar and Kr) sputtering was 60–70 times longer than that of the best commercially available foils. This paper reports a fabrication method for carbon stripper foils, along with an investigation of their lifetimes and changes in foil thickness during beam irradiation.
