Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this work, a highly-stable positron-age momentum correlation measurement system with a Na-22-radioisotope-base pulsed, low-energy positron beam, applicable to thin materials, were developed based on the positron annihilation technique that is a method for experimentally characterizing intermolecular holes in the amorphous region of the materials. By testing reference thin films systematically, a relationship between the momentum distributions due to long-lived positronium annihilations and the chemical composition of the material was elucidated. A technique to evaluate the sizes of the intermolecular holes as well as the surface chemistry on the holes was developed for functional thin materials.
