Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of electron microscopy technology, specifically relating to a color experimental apparatus and a color imaging system having the apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] A scanning electron microscope (SEM) utilizes electron imaging, similar to how optical microscopes use visible light for imaging. Because the wavelength of electrons is much shorter than the wavelength of light, the resolution of an electron microscope is higher than that of an optical microscope. It has become a powerful and versatile tool for materials characterization, widely used in materials science, metallurgy, mineralogy, and biology. The main components of an SEM are: an electron optics system, a signal collection and processing system, an image display and recording system, a vacuum system, and a power and control system. The working principle of an SEM is that it bombards the sample surface with a finely focused electron beam. Through the interaction between electrons and the sample, different signals are generated, including cathodoluminescence, secondary electrons, and backscattered electrons. These different signals characterize different morphological features of the sample, allowing for the observation and analysis of the sample surface or fracture morphology.

[0003] Cathodoluminescence (CL) is one of the many signals generated when an electron beam bombards a sample surface. It is produced by electron transitions at band gaps or defect sites caused by the electron beam, resulting in the emission of ultraviolet, visible, or infrared light. By mounting a cathodoluminescence probe on a scanning electron microscope (SEM), combining cathodoluminescence with the SEM, nanometer-level spatial resolution can be achieved due to the extremely small electron beam spot. Typically, after the cathodoluminescence probe acquires the signal, it is displayed as a grayscale image in the software. Different grayscale levels in the image reflect both the brightness variations of the sample and the signal intensity variations. However, cathodoluminescence grayscale images only reflect signal intensity variations and do not reflect the emission wavelength information of the sample.

[0004] Users in the geological field have further needs in cathodoluminescence imaging. When observing geological samples, they not only want to observe the light and dark information of the samples but also the color information corresponding to the emission wavelengths, i.e., color imaging. Color imaging plays an important role in mineral analysis, indicating changes in mineral composition and facilitating the observation of chemical imprints and growth zoning. It provides new assistance in oil and gas exploration, geological geochronology analysis, and mineral growth research.

[0005] However, in existing technologies, the color coordinates of the cathodoluminescence signal after conversion are generally obtained in the CIE-XYZ (color system) space, which cannot produce a true RGB color image (a color standard in the industry). Therefore, a color calibration device is required for calibration. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0045] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0046] The directional terms used in this invention, such as "inner," "longitudinal," and "lateral," are merely for reference to the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the directional terms used are for illustrating and understanding this invention, and not for limiting it.

[0047] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the color experimental apparatus of the present invention includes: a housing 10, a light source 20, an optical path 30, a standard colorimeter 40, and a color imaging probe 50. Among them,

[0048] The light source unit 20 includes a tri-color light source and a tri-color light source inlet provided on the housing unit 10. The tri-color light source inlet is used to allow the tri-color light source to enter the interior of the housing unit 10.

[0049] The optical path section 30 is disposed inside the housing section 10. The optical path section 30 is used to mix the three-color light sources and separate the mixed light to obtain a first part of light and a second part of light.

[0050] A standard colorimeter 40 is disposed at a first position away from the entrance of the tri-color light source in the housing 10. The standard colorimeter is used to acquire a first portion of light (transmitted light) and determine a first chromaticity coordinate to characterize the color of the first portion of light based on the first portion of light.

[0051] The color imaging probe 50 is positioned at a second location on the housing 10, away from the entrance of the three-color light source, different from the first location. The color imaging probe is used to acquire a second portion of light (reflected light) and determine second chromaticity coordinates to characterize the color of the second portion of light based on this second portion of light. A chromaticity conversion parameter between the second chromaticity coordinates and the first chromaticity coordinates is used to correct the detection and imaging results of the color imaging probe.

[0052] Given three-color light sources, the optical path unit 30 mixes the three colors and separates the mixed light to obtain a first part of light and a second part of light with the same illuminance and color coordinates. The first part of light is acquired by a standard colorimeter, and the second part of light is acquired by a color imaging probe. The standard colorimeter determines the first chromaticity coordinates (standard values) representing the color of the first part of light based on the first part of light. The color imaging probe determines the second chromaticity coordinates (actual acquired values) representing the color of the second part of light based on the second part of light. The chromaticity conversion parameter (calibration coefficient) between the second and first chromaticity coordinates can be used to correct the detection and imaging results of the color imaging probe, thereby obtaining a true RGB color image. This ensures that the color synthesized by the color imaging probe conforms to the true emission wavelength band, and is simple, efficient, accurate, reliable, and time-saving.

The first beam splitter 302 and the second beam splitter 303 enable uniform mixing of the three-color light sources, while the third beam splitter 304 separates the mixed light, facilitating the acquisition of the separated light by a standard colorimeter and a color imaging probe.

[0056] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 3As shown, the optical path section 30 includes a first plano-convex lens 305 disposed inside the housing section 10 and arranged along the first optical path channel 301. The first plano-convex lens 305 is disposed between the second beam splitter 303 and the third beam splitter 304. The first plano-convex lens 305 can collimate the mixed light and turn it into parallel light with good collimation effect, thereby facilitating the separation of parallel light by the third beam splitter 304.

[0069] The fourth beam splitter 309 is disposed inside the housing portion 10 and along the second optical path channel 308. The fourth beam splitter 309 is used to separate the mixed light.

[0070] The second optical path channel 308 enables the first color light source, the second color light source, and the third color light source that enter the housing 10 through the light source inlet 204 to be uniformly mixed. Furthermore, the fourth beam splitter 309 enables the mixed light to be separated, thereby facilitating the acquisition of the separated light by the standard colorimeter 40 and the color imaging probe 50.
