Thermal Neutron Holography
Abstract X-ray and neutron diffraction techniques have for almost a century produced results that provide important insights into materials of interest to a wide range of scientific and technological disciplines. However, traditional diffraction techniques have their limits, and these limits are best exemplified by the fact that certain important materials (e.g., integral proteins) are difficult if not impossible to crystallize — diffraction techniques usually require high-quality single crystals. Recently developed atomic resolution X-ray and neutron holography techniques offer the promise to resolve the structures of difficult-to-crystallize materials to atomic resolution. This chapter will discuss the latest developments in neutron holography and the challenges that must be overcome to make the technique a viable tool.
