Spin-echo small angle neutron scattering in Delft

We describe two spin-echo instruments for neutron small angle scattering, which have been installed at the reactor institute in Delft. The first setup is using a monochromatic beam and magnetized foils as spin flippers, while the second uses resonant spin flippers in a pulsed neutron beam. The components that play an essential role for operation are described in some detail. Each setup has specific advantages in its range of spin-echo lengths that covers the range of correlation lengths that could be measured. This is demonstrated in a comparative measurement, the setup with magnetized foils measuring at spin-echo-lengths up to 20 μm and the setup with resonant flippers measuring in the range up to 0.5 μm.
