<p>With the present AMS <sup>10</sup>Be uncertainties (~2% best case scenario) and the increasing need for more precise cosmogenic <sup>10</sup>Be data it has become imperative to improve AMS measurements. Precision depends on counting statistics which in turn depend on ion beam current stability and sample longevity. The ion beam currents are dependent on the metal matrix in which BeO is dispersed; the matrix:BeO ratio; homogeneity of the mixture and the packing of the AMS cathode. We aim to understand the effect of cathode homogeneity in generating stable beam currents. We have performed a series of experiments using different metal matrices (Nb, Ag, Fe) in different forms (solid and in solution). The metals have been added to different stages of the sample precipitation process and both BeO and Be(OH)<sub>2</sub> have been pressed into AMS cathodes and analysed at SUERC. We will discuss results of these experiments and introduce an innovative use of polyoxometalates (molibdanate and niobate) to create a homogeneous compound that has the potential to generate stable ion beam currents from sputter ion sources.</p>
