Neutron diffraction is a technique used to investigate the atomic and magnetic structures of materials by scattering neutrons off of them. It is similar to X-ray diffraction, but it utilizes neutrons instead of X-rays. The key aspects of neutron diffraction include: 1. **Neutron Source**: Neutrons are produced in nuclear reactors or spallation sources. These neutrons are then directed toward the sample being studied.
