Practical neutron detection modalities for industrial use available at a time-of-flight small-angle scattering instrument.
We report the latest advances of the iMATERIA instrument, namely, time-of-flight small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) specifically for measurements in the manufacturing and energy industries. Observations are available that are multi-scale (from a minimum qmin = 0.007 Å-1 to a maximum q = 30 Å-1), multi-time domain (>0.5 s) and multi-contrast by dynamical nuclear polarization. Multi-angle (or stereo) observation of film specimens can bridge between conventional SANS and reflectivity measurements. For multi-analysis, we have developed real-time simultaneous SANS and neutron radiography (NR), targeting polymer electrolyte fuel cells. In the future, we plan to establish simultaneous triple-analysis combining SANS, NR and prompt γ-ray analysis. By scanning with a beam of 1 mm2 in size, such analysis enables the mapping of structural parameters determined by SANS and elemental composition determined by prompt γ-ray analysis on the image obtained by NR.
期刊介绍:
Many research topics in condensed matter research, materials science and the life sciences make use of crystallographic methods to study crystalline and non-crystalline matter with neutrons, X-rays and electrons. Articles published in the Journal of Applied Crystallography focus on these methods and their use in identifying structural and diffusion-controlled phase transformations, structure-property relationships, structural changes of defects, interfaces and surfaces, etc. Developments of instrumentation and crystallographic apparatus, theory and interpretation, numerical analysis and other related subjects are also covered. The journal is the primary place where crystallographic computer program information is published.
