Description

We are developing the Ion Photon Emission Microscopy (IPEM). Since the spatial resolution is determined by the spot size and the intensity of Ion Beam Induced Luminescence (IBIL), the scintillator is one of the most important parts of IPEM. We propose that the diamond containing Nitrogen Vacancy (NV) centers can be used as a scintillator. For both diamond and YAG:Ce proposed by Branson et al., the minimum spot size is a few micrometers. IBIL intensity from diamond is four times higher than that from YAG:Ce. Therefore, we propose that the diamond containing NV centers is a rival candidate of YAG:Ce for IPEM. (author)
