Polarisation analysis on the LET time-of-flight spectrometer

Direct observation of magnetoelastic coupling in a molecular spin qubit: new insights from crystal field neutron scattering data

“…Additional INS experiments using both applied magnetic fields and variation of temperature are logical extensions to this work. Similarly, the use of polarised neutrons 54,68 could allow the magnetic and vibrational components to be measured separately and determine the extent of any mixing. The interplay of vibrational and magnetic excitations has direct implications for the use of SMM compounds in data storage and quantum computing applications.…”

Implementation of Time of Flight Polarized Neutron Imaging at Imat-Isis

“…The field strength for polarization rotation is adjustable by varying the current flowing through the coils and a compensating field coil was included to reduce the stray field at the flipper position. For the use at IMAT, the current was swept in synchronization with the neutron pulses [17]. This makes the Mezei rotator suitable for flipping the orientation of neutrons over a wide range of neutron wavelengths.…”

Inelastic Neutron Scattering of Lanthanoid Complexes and Single‐Molecule Magnets

“…The major technical developments with instrumentation that will likely drive new discoveries is a new wave of time‐of‐flight instruments either dedicated to measuring with polarised neutrons or with them as an additional experimental option. This includes HYSPEC at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, LET at ISIS, PELICAN at ANSTO, POLANO at J‐PARC and TOPAS at MLZ . Polarised neutron techniques allow magnetic, coherent and incoherent scattering to be separated experimentally; such capabilities have been successfully implemented on triple‐axis spectrometers and to some extent on the time‐of‐flight diffuse scattering spectrometer D7 at ILL.…”
