Description
Nuclear recoils can induce damage in crystal lattices; in certain materials, these defects can capture electrons, turning them optically active (i.e. color centers). At Virginia Tech, we have constructed the mesoSPIM light-sheet fluorescence microscope, which can rapidly image recoil-induced defects in cm3-volumes with micrometer-scale precision. In this talk, I will present commissioning data from the VT mesoSPIM and discuss prospects for imaging recoil damage in natural minerals.
