Abstract
We have investigated the Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) from a Double Crystal Diffractometer (DCD) in the (1, -1) setting using a focusing Si monochromator crystal in the symmetric (111) case and a defocusing analyser Si crystal in a completely asymmetric (111) case. We have found SANS data from porous glassy carbon and Silca spheres are asymmetric about the Bragg Peak centre. We attribute this observation to a combination of factors, particularly geometrical effects, related to the angle of acceptance χ into the analyser crystal when a SANS sample is positioned between the crystal pair. A simple procedure for SANS data correction is outlined and shown to be effective in this case.
