¹¹³Sn (115.09 d) is the parent nuclide of the ¹¹³Sn/^113mIn generator system. ^113mIn (99.476 min) is used in diagnostic nuclear medicine and as an Auger-electron emitter is a candidate for internal radiotherapy. Excitation functions of the ^natIn(d,x) ^113mgSn, ^116mIn, ^ind115mIn, ^114mIn, ^ind113mIn, ^cum111In, ^115gCd,^111mCd reactions were measured up to 40 MeV for the first time. The experimental results were compared with the curves calculated with the ALICE-D and EMPIRE-D theoretical model codes and curves given in the EAF-2007 and TENDL-2009 databases. Thick target yields, impurity levels and specific activities for the optimal energy range were deduced and compared with the same parameters of other charged particle production routes of ¹¹³Sn.
