High-density highly oriented graphite sheets provided by Kaneka Corporation have been applied as stripper disks for heavy-ion acceleration at RIKEN RI Beam Factory since 2014. The graphite sheets withstand increasing amounts of beam intensity. We observed the graphite sheets after beam irradiation with an electron microscope and their lifetime was discussed.
