NREX: Neutron reflectometer with X-ray option
The high resolution neutron/ X-ray contrast reflectometer NREX, operated by the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research, is designed for the determination of structural and magnetic properties of surfaces, interfaces, and thin film systems
RESEDA: Resonance spin echo spectrometer
RESEDA (resonance spin echo for diverse applications), a high-resolution resonance spin-echo spectrometer, operated by the Technische Universität München, is installed at the cold neutron guide NL5-S in the Neutron Guide Hall West. The instrument gives access to a large time and scattering vector range for quasi-elastic measurements
Research Vessel ALKOR
The research vessel ALKOR, operated by GEOMAR Kiel, is a versatile facility for marine science. The knowledge gained from ocean expeditions contributes to a better understanding of the biological, physical, geological and chemical processes in the ocean
HEiDi: Single crystal diffractometer at hot source
The single crystal diffractometer HEiDi, which is operated by the Institute of Crystallography, RWTH Aachen University and JCNS, Forschungszentrum Jülich, is designed for detailed studies on structural and magnetic properties of single crystals using unpolarised neutrons and Bragg’s Law: 2dhklsinθ = λ (typically 0.55 Å <λ< 1.2 Å)
SPM: Scanning positron microscope
The Munich scanning positron microscope, operated by the Universität der Bundeswehr München and the Technische Universität München, located at NEPOMUC, permits positron lifetime measurements with a lateral resolution in the µm range and within an energy range of 1 – 20 keV
FEI Titan G3 50-300 PICO
The FEI Titan G3 50-300 PICO is a unique fourth generation transmission electron microscope which has been specifically designed for the investigation of a wide range of solid state phenomena taking place on the atomic scale and thus necessitating true atomic resolution analysis capabilities. For these purposes, the FEI Titan G3 50-300 PICO is equipped with a Schottky type high-brightness electron gun (FEI X-FEG), a monochromator unit, and a Cs probe corrector (CEOS DCOR), a Cs-Cc achro-aplanat image corrector (CEOS CCOR+), a double biprism, a post-column energy filter system (Gatan Quantum 966 ERS) as well as a 16 megapixel CCD system (Gatan UltraScan 4000 UHS). Characterised by a TEM and STEM resolution well below 50 pm at 200 kV, the instrument is one of the few chromatically-corrected high resolution transmission electron microscopes in the world. Typical examples of use and technical specifications for the instrument are given below
PAES: Positron annihilation induced Auger electron spectrometer
Positron annihilation induced Auger electron spectroscopy (PAES) is a newly developed application for surface studies with high elemental selectivity and exceptional surface sensitivity. The instrument is operated by the Technische Universität München and is located at NEPOMUC
PLEPS: Pulsed low energy positron system
PLEPS, operated by the Universität der Bundeswehr München, located at NEPOMUC, is a unique tool for depth profiling of defects with positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy using a pulsed positron beam of variable energy
BIODIFF: Diffractometer for large unit cells
The single crystal diffractometer BIODIFF, which is jointly operated by the Technische Universität München and JCNS, Forschungszentrum Jülich, is designed to handle crystals with large unit cells and is dedicated to the structure determination of biological macromolecules. The main field of application is the neutron structure analysis of proteins, especially the determination of hydrogen atom positions
KWS-2: Small angle scattering diffractometer
KWS-2, operated by JCNS, Forschungszentrum Jülich, represents a classical pinhole SANS instrument where, combining the pinhole mode using different neutron wavelengths and detection distances with the focusing mode using MgF2 lenses, a wide Q-range between 1 x 10-4 and 0.5 Å-1 can be explored
