Abstract

Vie have developed an analytical color fluorescence electron microscope (ACFEM) which is now being studied as a possible tool for evaluating diamonds. The ACFEM permits observation using colors corresponding to cathodoluminescence (CL) wavelengths in the visible region (400700nm) to distinguish the type size and distribution of emission centers and emission bands of diamonds. The ACFEM is an effective tool for determing the conditions used for synthesizing chemical vapor deposition (CVD) diamonds and is far superior to xpS and SIMS as a tool for analyzing dopants. 1.
