Abstract
The problem of handling the fragile carbon foils (mounting on the frame, placing in the stripper changer) that easily break when self-supporting has been solved by coating carbon foils with poly-monochloro-para-xylylene. It was found that the polymer-coating method could also be used to produce carbon foils thicker than 100 μg/cm2 by alternated deposition of carbon and poly-monochloro-para-xylylene layers. Carbon foil of 500 μg/cm2 thick and 10 cm in diameter was produced by this method and mounted to a foil holder. Results of lifetime measurement for singly coated foils are also presented.
