| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to develop a conventional process to restore negative electron affinity (NEA) features for which electrons can be easily emitted from the solid surface, a high-quality microwave-plasma CVD diamond having a NEA surface that was converted to a positive electron affinity has been treated suitably with ultrasonic vibrations in a special solution, leading to the fact that its NEA feature can be restored partially. Then, a possible semi-quantitative characterization method of the diamond NEA feature has been proposed that is based on an quantitative analysis of local secondary electron signal intensity measured with a conventional scanning electron microscope. However, both improvement of the controllability and clarification of the mechanism of the concerned NEA restoration process have been put to a future study.
