Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The number of fission tracks (FT) is counted under an optical microscope after etching. However, as FT density per unit area rises, it becomes difficult to count the number of tracks because tracks overlap one another and are unable to be readily distinguished. The atomic force microscope (AFM) has a potential to observe fission tracks with high density after a short time etching. This research developed sample preparation techniques (e.g., polishing and etching) for AFM observation, established equipment settings for image capturing, and applied to date practical samples. The results were satisfactory, though the sample as old as 1 Ga is the oldest limit to be dated because the weak etching prevents extraction of FT from other structures. High resolution of AFM enables observation of possible alpha recoil tracks in zircon.
