BL10: Neutron Backscattering Spectrometer (planning)

Date: 2021-05-19 Author:

The neutron backscattering spectrometer has ultra-high energy resolution and can directly perform energy spectrum analysis. Thus it is suitable for the dynamic research of molecules, ions, and atoms. The spectrometer has a wide range of research fields, including physics, chemistry, biomedicine, materials, soft matter, energy, engineering, and computers.

 

The application areas include:

 

The physical basis of the life process: the role of cell water, drug delivery, protein folding mechanism, DNA expression; 

 

Hydrogen kinetics: hydrogen storage materials, fuel cells, hydrogen bonds, liquid crystals, biofilms, confined water, cement, catalysts molecular excitation, diffusion, rotation, relaxation: lithium batteries, flexible screens, ionic liquids, super capacitors, alloys; 

 

Basic physics: phase transition, critical process, glass transition, superfluid, nuclear spin excitation, spin glass, magnetism.
