Abstract
Neutron diffraction is a powerful technique to clarify the relationship between the crystal structures and the properties of functional materials. Since neutron atomic scattering factors do not depend on atomic numbers, neutron diffraction gives more reliable structural information than X-ray to detect light elements among heavy ones. In 2007, the proton accelerator project, J-PARC, will be completed and start delivering the most intense pulsed neutron in the world. Instrument proposals are being reviewed in the viewpoint of science, instrumental designs, and manpower, etc. This article was written to introduce the technique of pulsed neutron powder diffraction to promote high-pressure science in J-PARC.
