- !Equipment |
- The broad range of research topics investigated at SINQ requires not only a large zoo of neutron scattering instruments but also a large collection of sample environment devices. At present, any temperature between 100 mK to 1400 K, any magnetic fields up to 9 T and any high pressure up to 30 kbar may be achieved. The PSI-[Risø|http://www.risoe.dk/afm/index.htm] collaboration helped to complete the sample environment park in the direction to higher magnetic fields and very low temperatures for single crystals. |
