Abstract: C1.00206 : Have some large structures? Try small-angle neutron scattering (SANS)
Author:
The small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) beam line, CG-2, has
been in operation since 2007. CG-2 has been optimized so that
structures from 0.5 to 200 nm can be thoroughly investigated.
HFIR's cold source places the flux at CG-2 among the best in the
world. Along with high flux, many varied sample environments can
easily be integrated into the beam line which gives the user a
versatile temperature range from 1.5 K to 1000 K. In addition
there are two cryomagnets (horizontal 4.5 T and vertical 7 T),
pressure cells and load frames available to users allowing for the
availability of multiple configurations of experimental setups.
Due to all the above equipment and the flux at CG-2, there have
been many diverse and intriguing scientific developments. One such
outcome is the study of flux-line lattices found in Type-II
superconductors including the highly touted iron pnictides.
Besides superconductors, other science studied on CG-2 ranges from
molecular self-assembly and interactions in complex fluids to phase
separation to grain growth and orientation in metallurgical alloys.
