Single crystal applications of position sensitive detectors

Creators

Description

The possibility of using position sensitive detectors for single crystal studies on small and large structures is discussed. In particular it is shown that for large structures such as proteins, the advantages of structural studies with neutrons will only come out if the neutron amplitudes are combined with experimentally determined neutron phases. Suitable position sensitive detectors would make it possible to determine the structure of a protein by means of neutron diffraction only

Abstract (French)

On a discute la possibilite d'utiliser les detecteurs a localisation pour les etudes de monocristaux dans le cas de structures de petite et grande dimensions. En particulier on a montre que pour des structures de grande dimension telles que les proteines, les avantages des etudes structurales par neutrons ne ressortiront que si les amplitudes neutroniques sont combinees avec des phases neutroniques determinees experimentalement. Des detecteurs a localisation adaptes devraient permettre la determination de la structure d'une proteine en utilisant la diffraction neutronique uniquement
