Research Abstract |
An atmospheric positron microprobe has been developed which can detect atomic defects in materials placed in air. A prototype device has been constructed and characterized, and practical application of the positron microprobe demonstrated. Using the prototype device a pulsed, focused, slow positron beam was extracted into air and previously impossible 'in-situ' measurements of atomic defects in functional thin films and other materials were undertaken. By measuring the positron lifetime in these materials we were able to perform non-destructive defect characterization in atmospheric conditions.
