摘要
POLDI (Pulse-OverLap DIffractometer) is a multiple pulse-overlap diffractometer at PSI, which is designed mainly for strain-scanning experiments, The multiple pulse-overlap method Made it Possible to build a time-of-flight diffractometer at a continuous neutron source with short flight paths high resolution and high intensity. The best achievable resolutions for the relative linewidths of the Bragg reflections are between 1 x 10(-3) and 2 x 10(-3), depending on the lattice spacing. The layout of the instrument and the features of the chopper. the neutron mirror and the He-3 detector in time-focusing geometry are presented. The overall performance of the instrument is discussed with examples of strain-field measurements. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
