Positron annihilation coincidence Doppler-broadening (CDB) spectroscopy is a useful technique for elemental analysis of positron trapping sites in materials. In the conventional bulk measurement, a positron source (22Na) must be sandwiched between two identical samples, limiting its applicability. In this study, we developed a CDB measurement system compatible with a single sample by applying an anti-coincidence technique for β+ rays emitted from the source.
