Establishment of magnetic scattering neutron holography

中子原子分辨率全息术提供了特定原子核周围的3D原子核图像。这种方法将探索局域结构分析的新阶段，如氢周围的环境结构或局域磁结构，这是其他方法无法获得的。作为对中子散射全息术的基础性研究，我们测量了PdH单晶的中子全息图。由此得到的Pd和H的核图像分别呈现负和正的幅度，反映了Pd和H的散射长度的符号。

Atomic resolution holography with neutrons offers 3D nucleus images around specific nuclei. This method will explore a new stage of local structure analysis, such as environmental structure around hydrogen or local magnetic structure, which cannot be obtained by other methods. As a fundamental study toward neutron scattering holography, we have measured neutron hologram of PdH single crystal. The resulted nucleus images of Pd and H exhibit minus and plus amplitudes, respectively, reflecting sign of the scattering lengths of Pd and H.
