Copper (29 Cu) has two stable isotopes, 63 Cu and 65 Cu, along with 28 radioisotopes. The most stable radioisotope is 67 Cu with a half-life of 61.83 hours. Most of the others have half-lives under a minute. Unstable copper isotopes with atomic masses below 63 tend to undergo β + decay, while isotopes with atomic masses above 65 tend to ...
This page lists radioactive nuclides by their half-life.
Copper-64 (64 Cu) is a positron and beta emitting isotope of copper, with applications for molecular radiotherapy and positron emission tomography. Its unusually long half-life (12.7-hours) for a positron-emitting isotope makes it increasingly useful when attached to various ligands , for PET and PET-CT scanning.
Copper foil is a thin sheet of copper metal that is widely used in various applications due to its excellent electrical conductivity, malleability, and corrosion resistance. It is an essential material in the electronics industry, especially for manufacturing printed circuit boards (PCBs) and other electronic components.
Radiochemistry is the chemistry of radioactive materials, in which radioactive isotopes of elements are used to study the properties and chemical reactions of non-radioactive isotopes (often within radiochemistry the absence of radioactivity leads to a substance being described as being inactive as the isotopes are stable).
In nuclear medicine, radioisotopes are used for diagnosis, treatment, and research. Radioactive chemical tracers emitting gamma rays or positrons can provide diagnostic information about internal anatomy and the functioning of specific organs, including the human brain .
An RF anechoic chamber used for EMC testing. In materials science, radiation-absorbent material (RAM) is a material which has been specially designed and shaped to absorb incident RF radiation (also known as non-ionising radiation), as effectively as possible, from as many incident directions as possible.
Radioisotopes of hydrogen, carbon, phosphorus, sulfur, and iodine have been used extensively to trace the path of biochemical reactions. A radioactive tracer can also be used to track the distribution of a substance within a natural system such as a cell or tissue , [ 1 ] or as a flow tracer to track fluid flow .
