2 What is a positron moderator? The advent of slow positron beams has resulted in nondestructive depth profiling of defects in surfaces and interfaces, low energy positron diffraction and positron remission microscopy studies on surfaces. The production of slow positron beam is essentially determined by a moderator foil, from which mono-energetic slow positrons are emitted. Moderator foils can be used either in transmission or reflection geometry. W (100) single-crystal foil has been a workhorse for use in positron beams as moderators.
3 Different Moderator geometries (courtesy Paul Coleman)
4 How does a moderator work? The moderator works based on the negative workfunction for positrons in certain solids. Positrons from the radioactive source fall onto the moderator foil. Since, the thickness of the moderator foil is much smaller than the mean penetration depth of the positrons entering the foil, only a few thermalizes, diffuses and reaches the surface. The thermalized slow positrons are emitted from the surface of the foil spontaneously owing to the negative positron workfunction (φ+). The workfunction of W (110) foil is 3.0 ev and that of W (100) is ev.
5 Work function of electron and positron
6 The commonly used foils in the slow positron beam production are the single crystal tungsten foil in (100) or (110) orientation with thickness of a few µm. The important criterion for a moderator foil to be used in the slow positron beam production is the moderator efficiency, ε. It is defined as the ratio of the slow positron flux from the moderator to the fast positrons from the radioactive source. For the W(100) foil, the moderator efficiency is ~ Polycrystalline tungsten foils have also been used successfully as moderators. Solid rare gas moderators of Ne, Ar, Kr and Xe had also been reported with efficiencies in the range These are obtained by depositing neon or krypton or argon layer on a source foil at low temperatures. They have extremely good efficiencies of the order of 10-2 but preparation and maintenance of the foil at low temperatures (~ 40 K) is rather involved process. (courtesy Paul Coleman)

12 Issues in the use of W(100) moderator As-received W(100) foil needs to be heated at higher temperatures for optimal yield. What is the ideal temperature of heating? How long it needs to be heated? Since slow positron emission is surface process, what is the role of surface chemical impurities? How do they influence the moderation yield?

33 Summary W(100) is stable and robust moderator yielding ε ~ 10-5, with quite small E T. Inert gas moderators provide high ε ~10-3 but E T is quite large - moderator preparation is rather involved. Need for more focused research for higher efficiency moderators.
