Objective
The objectives of this proposal are:
- to improve the instrumentation of European neutron facilities
- to train young scientists in the techniques of neutron instrumentation.
It will achieve these objectives by undertaking research in three key areas:
- neutron detectors;
- neutron polarization devices;
- visualization software.
Each of these areas is chosen because of the major impact it will have on neutron instrumentation, and because in each area there are new ideas and techniques that require development. These three areas underpin the current development of neutron instrumentation and the benefit from the overlapping expertise of each partner.
Prototype solid state neutron detectors, based on both amorphous and crystalline silicon diodes have been built and their characteristics investigated. The possibility of using polarized helium-3 as a neutron polarizer is being investigated. A prototype European Standard for the interchange of neutron scattering data has been defined. Computer software has been written to regrid and visualize very large single crystal Laue time of flight data sets.
