Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of quantum sensing material preparation, and particularly relates to an online detection device and a detection method for high-dose electron irradiation. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, a diamond nitrogen vacancy (NV) color center is a quantum sensing material capable of realizing high-precision magnetic field measurement. High-energy electron irradiation on nitrogen-containing diamond is an important step in preparation of the diamond NV color center material. In this step, the C bond of the nitrogen-containing diamond (target material) is broken under electron beam bombardment to form a vacancy; then the vacancy combines with adjacent nitrogen atoms to form an NV color center. Detection of the irradiation intensity of the electron beam can determine the uniformity of the irradiation intensity distribution and calibrate the intensity value borne by the target material, so as to optimize the preparation process and improve the material performance.

[0003] The existing detection devices for electron beam irradiation intensity mainly include the following two types: 1) a Faraday cup, which is a cup-shaped collector for directly measuring the electron beam intensity by absorbing the electron beam charge. The cup mouth usually has a suppression electrode or a small negative bias voltage is applied to prevent secondary electrons generated by the incident electrons hitting the edge of the cup mouth from escaping, and to prevent secondary electrons generated in the cup from escaping; and 2) a beam current transformer, which includes a ceramic slit to allow the electron beam to pass through, and a high magnetic permeability magnetic ring is wound around the periphery to induce the change of the magnetic field generated by the beam current, and the electron beam intensity passing through is calculated by detecting the voltage signal generated on the secondary winding due to the change of the magnetic field.

[0033] The vacuum shell 10 is in the shape of a cuboid, the vacuum shell 10 is surrounded to form a cuboid-shaped vacuum chamber 11, so that Figure 1 For example, the installation opening 121 is formed on the top surface of the vacuum shell 10, the titanium-based vacuum film window 30 is installed in the installation opening 121, the outer wall of the titanium-based vacuum film window 30 is fixed on the inner wall of the installation opening 121, in the use process, the titanium-based vacuum film window 30 can allow the high-energy electron beam for diamond target irradiation to pass through and achieve the blocking of the gas ionization particles, while bearing the internal and external pressure difference of the vacuum shell 10.

[0034] Specifically, the water-cooled plate 20 is a copper plate with a strong water-cooled channel 4133, the water-cooled plate 20 is used for absorbing about 90% of the irradiation intensity of the electron beam, avoiding the thermal damage of the titanium-based vacuum film window 30 and the detection assembly 40.

A certain amount of low-energy stray electrons are generated in the process of the target detection electron beam penetrating the titanium-based vacuum film window 30, but the low-energy stray electrons cannot enter the detection assembly 40, while the target detection electron beam has a kinetic energy of 3 MeV and can enter the detection assembly 40.

The low-energy stray electrons cannot pass through the potential well, while the kinetic energy of the target detection electron is 3MeV, which is sufficient to pass through the potential well and enter the Faraday cup 4132. Therefore, the accuracy of detection is improved.

[0056] It should be noted that the connector terminal 4134 is a component known to those skilled in the art, and the structure of the connector terminal 4134 will not be described here.

[0057] In the embodiment, two terminals are arranged on each Faraday cup 4132, and the two terminals extend outward along the second direction 80 and are arranged at intervals along the third direction 90. The terminals are sequentially fixed to the holes 4130 and the connecting holes 4118 at one end of the Faraday cup 4132 and are inserted into the vacuum chamber 11.

[0058] Specifically, the Faraday cup 4132 is used to absorb the electron beam for target irradiation and convert the absorbed electron charge into an analog current signal. In the detection process of the Faraday cup 4132, the secondary electron escape in the Faraday cup 4132 and the entry of stray particles outside the Faraday cup 4132 are inhibited by the suppression electrode 4131, thereby improving the detection accuracy.

[0059] The center lines of the channels 4133 and the blind holes 4134 are arranged in parallel with the third direction 90. In the embodiment, the total number of the Faraday cups 4132 is 40, each Faraday cup 4132 has a separate terminal 4134, and the position of the Faraday cup 4132 corresponds to the position of the expected diamond target, so that the electron beam intensity detected by a single Faraday cup 4132 is consistent with the electron beam intensity irradiated on a single target.

[0060] The side wall and the bottom of the Faraday cup 4132 have a thickness of not less than 10 mm and are made of oxygen-free copper. The penetration depth of a 3 MeV target detection electron beam in oxygen-free copper is not more than 2 mm, so that the target detection electron is completely absorbed by the Faraday cup 4132, and the absorbed charge is converted into a current, and then the current is transmitted to a signal reading device.

[0061] The water-cooled plate 20 is used to absorb about 90% of the irradiation intensity of the electron beam to avoid thermal damage to the titanium-based vacuum film window 30 and the Faraday cup 4132. The collimating holes 21 formed in the water-cooled plate 20 are used to allow the target detection electron beam to be detected to pass through the water-cooled plate 20 and enter the vacuum chamber 11.

[0062] Specifically, the vacuum shell 10 is used to provide a vacuum environment for the Faraday cup 4132 to avoid gas ionization caused by the electron beam in the Faraday cup 4132.

[0063] Further, in the embodiment, the detection assembly 40 further comprises a pressurizing plate 414, which is arranged on the plurality of detection units 41. The pressurizing plate 414 is provided with a plurality of through holes 4141, which are arranged at intervals along the first direction 70 and correspond to the detection units 41 in a one-to-one manner. By arranging the pressurizing plate 414, all the suppression electrodes are in series and can be powered through only one high-voltage channel because the pressurizing plate 414 is in direct contact with all the suppression electrodes in the detection assembly 40.

[0064] Specifically, the number of via hole 4141 units is basically consistent with the number of detection units 41. The pressing plate 414 is arranged at the top end of all the suppression electrodes to make all the suppression electrodes in series.

[0065] The via hole 4141 unit includes at least two via holes 4141, both of which pass through the pressing plate 414, and the two via holes 4141 are arranged at intervals along the second direction 80. The first cavity 4126 is arranged one-to-one with the via hole 4141, and the via hole 4141 is in communication with the first cavity 4126.

[0066] Continuing to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 9 In this embodiment, the vacuum shell 10 includes an outer shell 12 and an interface flange 13. The outer shell 12 surrounds the vacuum chamber 11. One end of the outer shell 12 is provided with an opening 123, which is in communication with the vacuum chamber 11. The outer wall of the end where the opening 123 is provided is provided with a connecting flange 122, which extends outward. The interface flange 13 is arranged on the opening 123 and is bolted to the connecting flange 122. The interface flange 13 is provided with a high-voltage connector 131 and a plurality of signal interfaces 132. The inner end of the high-voltage connector 131 is connected to the suppression electrode 4131 through a cable. An external power supply is connected to the outer end of the high-voltage connector 131, which is used to supply power to the suppression electrode. The inner ports of the plurality of signal interfaces 132 are connected to the connector terminals 4134 on the plurality of Faraday cups 4132 through a wire. The outer ports of the plurality of signal interfaces 132 are connected to the signal reading device 50. The signal reading device 50 reads the current signal in the Faraday cup 4132 in time sequence.

[0067] As shown in Figure 3 , the top end of the outer shell 12 is provided with a mounting opening 121, and the left end of the outer shell 12 is provided with an opening 123. The interface flange 13 is arranged on the left end of the outer shell 12.

[0068] The signal reading device includes a signal shielding line and a signal receiving device. The signal receiving device is connected to the outer ports of the signal interfaces 132 through the signal shielding line.

[0069] It should be noted that the signal receiving device is a component known to those skilled in the art, and the structure of the signal receiving device will not be described here.

[0070] Specifically, the suppression electrode 4131 is used to suppress the escape of secondary electrons in the Faraday cup 4132 and the entry of stray particles outside the Faraday cup 4132 after being loaded with a negative potential.

[0071] Further, the online detection device 1 for electron irradiation high dose provided by the embodiment further comprises a vacuum pump set 60, the interface flange 13 is provided with a suction port 133, the suction port 133 is communicated with the vacuum chamber 11 through the opening 123, the vacuum pump set 60 is arranged outside the vacuum shell 10, and the vacuum pump set 60 is connected through the vacuum pipe suction port 133; the vacuum pump set 60 is used for forming a vacuum environment in the vacuum chamber 11.

[0072] It should be noted that the vacuum pump set 60 is a component known to those skilled in the art, and the structure of the vacuum pump will not be described here.

[0073] In the embodiment, the vacuum pump set 60 is a combination of a dry front-stage pump and a molecular pump, which can generate, maintain and control the required vacuum environment of the vacuum shell 10 in a wider vacuum pressure range.

[0074] The process of the online detection device 1 for electron irradiation high dose provided by the embodiment in detecting the electron irradiation intensity under atmospheric conditions in the process of preparing quantum material diamond NV color centers is as follows: taking the vacuum shell 10 with the titanium-based vacuum film window 30 welded as the basis, based on the vacuum pump set 60 of the dry front-stage pump and the molecular pump, the vacuum pump set 60 is responsible for maintaining the vacuum degree in the vacuum chamber 11, and an independent vacuum environment is constructed, and the electron beam intensity detection is relied on the Faraday cup 4132 in the vacuum environment.

[0075] Specifically, most of the energy of the high-energy electron beam is absorbed by the water-cooled plate 20 to avoid thermal damage of the titanium-based vacuum film window 30 and the Faraday cup 4132, and a certain number of low-energy stray electrons are generated in the process of the initial electron beam (i.e. the target detection electron beam) after the electron beam passes through the collimating hole 21 of the water-cooled plate 20 and penetrates the titanium-based vacuum film window 30, the voltage of about-500V is loaded on the suppression electrode 4131, the low-energy stray electrons cannot pass through the potential well formed by the suppression electrode 4131 and the titanium-based vacuum film window 30, and the kinetic energy of the target detection electron beam is 3MeV, which is enough to pass through the potential well and enter the Faraday cup 4132. It should be noted that the intensity of the high-energy electron beam entering the Faraday cup 4132 through the collimating hole 21 of the water-cooled plate 20 is consistent with the intensity of the electron beam irradiated by the target material, the target detection electron is completely absorbed by the Faraday cup 4132, and the charge amount absorbed by the Faraday cup 4132 is converted into an electric current, and then the electric current is transmitted to a signal reading device.

[0076] It should be noted that the online detection device 1 has no vacuum requirement for the detection condition in the detection process, and can cover the electron beam intensity detection in the intensity range of nA~mA.

[0077] Second embodiment:

[0078] Referring to Figure 10 and Figure 11The second embodiment of the present application provides a detection method of the online detection device 1 for electron irradiation high dose as described in the first embodiment, comprising the following steps:

[0079] In the detection assembly 40, the suppression electrode 4131 forms a potential well with the titanium-based vacuum film, and the low-energy stray electrons generated when the target detection electron beam passes through the titanium-based vacuum film cannot cross the potential well, and the target detection electron can cross the potential well into the Faraday cup 4132 in the detection assembly 40.

[0080] Specifically, the vacuum pump set 60 is responsible for maintaining the vacuum degree in the vacuum chamber 11, and the insulating cylinder 4124 keeps the Faraday cup 4132 and the suppression electrode 4131 insulated from the vacuum shell 10; wherein the initial electron beam (i.e. the target detection electron beam) after the electron beam passes through the collimating hole 21 on the water-cooled plate 20 passes through the titanium-based vacuum film window 30, that is, from the atmospheric environment to the vacuum environment, and the ionization particles generated by the electron beam in the atmospheric environment have an energy of more than 100 eV, and the penetration ability is much smaller than that of the initial electron beam, so they cannot penetrate the titanium-based vacuum film window 30.

[0081] Most of the electron beams are absorbed by the water-cooled plate 20, avoiding the thermal damage of the Faraday cup 4132 and the titanium-based vacuum film window 30; a certain amount of low-energy stray electrons will be generated in the process of the target detection electron beam penetrating the titanium-based vacuum film window 30, and the suppression electrode 4131 is loaded with a voltage of about -500 V, and the low-energy stray electrons cannot cross the potential well formed by the suppression electrode 4131 and the titanium-based vacuum film window 30, while the kinetic energy of the target detection electron is 3 MeV, which is enough to cross the potential well and enter the Faraday cup 4132.

[0082] Specifically, each Faraday cup 4132 has a separate signal output and corresponds to the position of the expected diamond target one by one, so that the electron beam intensity detected by a single Faraday cup 4132 is consistent with the electron beam intensity of a single target irradiated.

[0083] S102, the target detection electron is absorbed by the Faraday cup 4132, the absorbed charge is converted into an electric current, and the electric current is transmitted to the signal readout device.

[0084] Specifically, the side wall and the bottom of the Faraday cup 4132 are not less than 10 mm in thickness, and are made of oxygen-free copper, and the penetration depth of a 3 MeV electron beam in oxygen-free copper does not exceed 2 mm, therefore, the target detection electron beam will be completely absorbed by the Faraday cup 4132, and the absorbed charge will be converted into an electric current, and then the electric current will be transmitted to the signal readout device.

[0085] The online detection device 1 and the detection method for electron irradiation high dose provided by the application, the online detection device 1 comprises a vacuum shell 10, a water-cooled plate 20, a titanium-based vacuum film window 30, a detection assembly 40 and a signal reading device 50; the vacuum shell 10 is surrounded to form a vacuum chamber 11, an installation opening 121 is formed on the outer wall of the vacuum shell 10, the installation opening 121 is communicated with the vacuum chamber 11, the titanium-based vacuum film window 30 is installed in the installation opening 121, the water-cooled plate 20 is covered on the installation opening 121, a collimating hole 21 is formed on the water-cooled plate 20, the collimating hole 21 penetrates through the water-cooled plate 20 and is correspondingly arranged with the titanium-based vacuum film window 30, the detection assembly 40 is arranged in the vacuum chamber 11, and the detection assembly 40 is correspondingly arranged with the collimating hole 21; the signal reading device 50 is arranged outside the vacuum shell 10, and the signal reading device is connected with the detection assembly 40; the detection process is that: target detection electrons enter a Faraday cup 4132, and a signal reading device reads a current signal; by arranging the titanium-based vacuum film window 30, the titanium-based vacuum film window 30 keeps the internal and external pressure difference of the vacuum chamber 11 at the same time, allows efficient penetration of electrons, and effectively avoids gas ion particles from entering the detection range, thereby solving the technical problem that the target detection electron beam intensity cannot be detected in an atmospheric environment; and meanwhile, the accuracy of detection is improved.
