Title

Ionic-liquids composites (ILCs) for holographic-grating neutron-optical elements

Abstract

We use materials that are sensitive to light, combined with holographic techniques to produce transmission gratings for neutron-optics. The treated materi­als exhibit a periodic neutron refrac­tive-index pattern, arising from a light-induced redistribution of the con­stituents. To keep rocking curves wide for adjustment and collimation reasons, novel materials should reach high reflectivity via increasing their con­stituents' contrast in coherent scattering length. One candidate material that has, so far, never been investigated with neutrons are composites of polymer and ionic liquids (ILCs). We intend to measure neutron diffraction from holographic gratings recorded in ILCs.
