Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Low-energy positron diffraction is a positron version of low-energy electron diffraction, and it has been proposed as an ideal method for analyzing crystal surface structures, even on surfaces containing heavy elements. However, it is difficult to obtain sufficient beam intensity for diffraction experiments due to the use of antiparticles. We have developed a low-energy positron diffractometer using an accelerator-based high-intensity slow-positron beam and have successfully observed diffraction patterns. The initial detector with a two-layer delay-line anode had a large cross-shaped dead area. We have developed a new low-energy electron/positron diffractometer using a three-layer delay-line anode to observe the diffraction pattern without the cross-shaped dead area. In addition, a surface structure analysis code for LEPD has been developed, which enables us to analyze the surface structure by LEPD.
