Abstract
The diffraction of thermal neutrons is a powerful tool for investigations of residual stresses in various structural materials and bulk industrial products due to the non-destructive character of the method and high penetration depth of neutrons. Therefore, for conducting experiments in this research field, the neutron Fourier stress diffractometer FSD has been constructed at the IBR-2 pulsed reactor in FLNP JINR (Dubna, Russia). Using a special correlation technique at the long-pulse neutron source, a high resolution level of the instrument has been achieved (Δd/d ≈ 2 ÷ 4 × 10−3) over a wide range of interplanar spacing dhkl at a relatively short flight distance between the chopper and sample position (L = 5.55 m). The FSD design satisfies the requirements of a high luminosity, high resolution, and specific sample environment. In this paper, the current status of the FSD diffractometer is reported and examples of performed experiments are given.
