TOTAL DIFFRACTION AND THERMAL DIFFUSE SCATTERING FROM A MULTI-BOUNCE CHANNEL-CUT SINGLE CRYSTAL

Conference ·
OSTI ID:1050251
We studied Bragg diffraction and Thermal Diffuse Scattering (TDS) from a Si(111) channel-cut triple-bounce crystal using the time-of-flight technique at a pulsed neutron source. Cadmium shielding restricted the detector s direct view of the first bounce surface. The channel-cut crystal dramatically suppresses TDS in the vicinity of the (111), (333) and (444) Bragg reflections; however, TDS appears and increases with the decrease of wavelength in the range of the (555), (777) and (888) orders where cadmium becomes transparent and the single-bounce reflections and TDS contaminate the triple-bounce (555), (777) and (888) reflections.
