The goal of this work is to further characterize lithium alloys through constructing a chamber and method that produces consistent alloys, specifically focusing on tin lithium and lead lithium. A computer will be the primary control for the process to ensure sample consistency. To further improve the consistency, a load lock system will protect the samples in an inert argon atmosphere as they are moved between the chamber and storage. Initial characterization of the alloys will include measurements of vapor pressure using Knudsen effusion, wetting contact, and alloy composition.
