Help create thin film of osmium (Os) ?!

I'm in search of a chemical method to create a thin film of Osmium
(1-3 microns) for irradiation, and use in our K500 Cyclotron.
Eventually we will complete X- and gamma-ray analysis on the resulting
nuclei. I need to be able to put/get the film onto a mylar backing
(or comparably
thin material), and completely enclose the sample for irradiation.
The chem groups were not very helpful, so I'm going to try the physics
ones! I'm more a physicist than a chemist, so I need some help coming
up with a feasible way to do this. I have the Texas A&M University
chemistry and physics departments at my disposal. ANYONE with any
ideas, please suggest them. Also you can email me at
jrmontag@colby.edu, or jmontague@comp.tamu.edu. Thank you.
