Scintillation detectors for special use in SEM

Project aims to develop and commercialize two new types of detection system for scanning electron microscope (SEM). Both systems will be based on a single crystalline scintillator material. Those systems are A) quantitative STEM detector (STEM) and B) BSE detector for high-temperature samples (HTB). STEM detector will allow for studying of exact parameters of scattering of electron in thin samples. HTB detector will enable measurement of high-temperature behaviour of materials like recrystallization, phase transitions, etc. The main use will be study of strength of steel for pressure containers of nuclear reactors under radioactive conditions.
