A new positron production and measurement apparatus has been developed at a synchrotron radiation facility. Highly energetic positrons were created via pair creation in a Pb target by implantation of 16.7 MeV photons generated via inverse Compton scattering of a Nd laser beam from a 1 GeV electron beam circulating in the storage ring at the NewSUBARU synchrotron radiation facility. These positrons, with an energy of around 8 MeV, are separated using a magnetic field and directly implanted into a thick sample to detect defects. By using laser Compton scattered (LCS) photon generated positrons, we performed positron annihilation Doppler broadening measurement for fatigue stress applied iron with a thickness of 2 mm. Vacancy type defects in nondestructive fatigue stress applied iron specimens were successfully detected by this LCS-positron apparatus.
