Insulating materials and semiconductors emits light in the ultraviolet to infrared region by the bombardment of electrons. This phenomenon is called Cathodoluminescence (CL). CL phenomenon has been applied to analysis in many areas: an evaluation of defect distribution in semiconductor, an investigation of geological history of minerals, and so on. Especially, materials containing rare earth elements have high luminescence intensity. The detection limit of CL analysis is as low as ppb order. In the present study, we tried to apply CL analysis for evaluating rare earth elements in magnets. We also tried to sort magnets containing rare earth elements from their luminescent colors with a portable CL spectrometer we realized [1]. Analysis of rare earth elements in magnets is quite important for recycling due to high cost of rare earth elements.Samples analyzed in the present study were a samarium-cobalt magnet and a neodymium magnet. We measured chloridized magnets because magnets themselves do not show CL phenomenon. The magnets were dissolved in 35% hydrochloric acid (HCl), and the solutions were dried in vacuum. Then, the vacuum-dried residues were measured with a SEM-CL system we customized. The SEM-CL system consisted of conventional SEM (JEOL, JSM-5610LVS), optical fiber, and optical spectrometer (Ocean optics, QE65Pro). The accelerating voltage and electron beam current of the SEM-CL system were set to 15 kV and 2 μA, respectively. Measurement duration was set to 100 seconds. Pressure in a chamber of the SEM-CL system was about 10-3 Pa during the measurement.
