Neutron spin echo is a well-known scattering technique to explore structural and magnetic dynamics in soft and condensed matter with sub-μeV energy resolution. Radio frequency spin flippers (RFSF) are key elements of neutron resonance spin echo (NRSE) spectrometers. With these, scientists can perform controlled manipulations of beam polarization. A group of scientists who work as part of the NMI3 Joint Research Activity on Advanced Methods and Techniques has designed and tested a new type of RFSF using an original manufacturing technique for the static coil.
