Collimator uses to be reached monochromatic neutron
beam on sample run parallel or to improve detection
resolution of diffracted beam by the sample. Soller-slit
style collimator was named as Soller uses for the first
time to X-ray device in 1924. This type collimator uses
several thin metal plate mainly. After developing of
the collimator that use film instead of thin metal plate
in ISIS, film collimator is manufactured and used to
neutron spectrometers in research institute such as
RIS , HMI and FRM-II. HANARO developed jig for film
collimator with reference to jig in FRM-II. We assembled
collimator using Gd2O3-coated PET film on two faces.
This film absorbs large dispersed neutron beam more
than dispersion angle of the collimator while neutron
beam passes collimator. We are now manufacturing collimator
that have various dispersion and it is target that develop
collimator being more than beam transmittance 92% in
degree of dispersion 10
