focusing monochromators

SwissNeutronics designs and fabricates mechanics for 1- and 2-dimensional focusing monochromators with adjustable curvature, i.e. adjustable focusing. The concept for precise focusing relies on the sophisticated mechanics, which is machined with very high precision. In order to reduce background, SwissNeutronics minimizes the amout of material that is struck by neutron beam. The basic, standardized design of the monochromators enables for a reliable high quality and cost efficient fabrication. Moreover, it offers a large flexibility to customize the monochromator to the specific individual requirements. SwissNeutronics provides also the service for crystal characterization and alignment using neutrons.

SwissNeutronics provides also crystals:

  • Germanium

  • Silicone

  • Copper

  • Heusler
