We measured the β‐decay of the halo‐nucleus 11Li, with particular attention to the deuteron‐ and triton‐emission channels. We employed a post‐accelerated beam of 11Li ions, and the implantation technique in a finely‐segmented silicon detector. The channels of interest were identified through the time and space correlations between the implantation events and the parent and daughter decays. We obtained the branching ratios, as well as the spectra of the emitted ions.
