To study exotic nuclei with extremely low purity produced by the Radioactive Ion Beam Line in Lanzhou, we perform an experiment of beta-delayed proton emission of 36,37^Ca under a high-intensity continuous-beam mode. Ions are implanted into a double-sided silicon strip detector, where the subsequent decays are correlated to the preceding implantations in time sequence. The energy spectra of delayed protons from 36,37^Caβ decay, half-lives and decay branching ratios axe measured. The experimental results confirm the previous literature data and some improved results are obtained as well, demonstrating the feasibility of our detection approach and the reliability of our data analysis procedure.
