Description

In order to apply a 3He neutron spin filter (NSF) to experiments at a pulsed neutron experimental facility, it is important to make the setup stable and easy to set up and operate, because the setup is located inside a radiation shield for high-energy gamma rays and neutrons. In this study, we have developed compact laser optics with a volume holographic grating element for a spin-exchange optical pumping (SEOP) method, and composed a setup for an in-situ SEOP 3He NSF. The design and performance of the setup are reported. (author)
