摘要：
The new V12 instrument at the Hahn-Meitner Institute in Berlin is a multiple setup combining several techniques to investigate the internal structure of bulk samples. It consists of two double-crystal diffractometers (DCDs) and an attenuation tomography device operating with monochromatic neutrons. The three instrument parts can be used independently at the same time. The DCDs are mainly used in the ultra-small-angle neutron scattering (USANS) regime, where they overlap the accessible range of small-angle neutron scattering instruments, while tomographic methods collect real-space information on a macroscopic scale. Together they enable structural investigations over six orders of magnitude (50 nm to 5 cm). Scattering and tomographic methods can even be combined by means of diffraction and scattering-enhanced imaging. The sample environment can be varied over a large range of temperatures and pressures for USANS measurements and a polarized USANS option is available.
