Abstract
The ratio between energies of Vavilov–Cherenkov radiation and cathodoluminescence excited by an electron beam in diamond samples is determined taking into account electron scattering in these samples, energy distribution of beam electrons, ionization losses of the electron energy, and dispersion of the diamond refractive index. Experimental results on measuring spectral characteristics of the glow of natural and synthetic diamond samples under the action of a subnanosecond electron beam with electron energy of up to 200 keV are presented. It is shown that most of the radiation of the diamond samples in the region of 240–750 nm under the action of an electron beam with electron energy of up to 200 keV belongs to cathodoluminescence.
