Abstract
A vertical cryostat was developed built around a Sumitomo RDK-101D cold head. The cryostat is intended for investigating the structure and phase transformations of different materials via neutron diffraction experiments on samples under high vacuum of up to 10−5 mbar. A working temperature of the sample close to 2 K was reached. The drift diameter of the head is 54 mm, making it possible to cool samples with a height of 55 mm and 15 mm in diameter. Test measurements were conducted and illustrative spectra were recorded on the example of a sample of HoFeO3. The cryostat was designed and manufactured at the Frank Laboratory of Neutron Physics of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research.
