company profile
SwissNeutronics was founded in 1999 as a spin-off company of the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI) in Villigen, Switzerland. It is organized and registered as a joint stock company according to Swiss law. The know-how developed at PSI in the design and production of supermirror coatings was made fully available to the company for commercialization. Since that, SwissNeutronics develops the technique for neutron supermirror coatings continuously further establishing the highest available performace. In the mean time our products cover a wide range of neutron optics and the planning, design, construction, and installation of complete instruments.
our objectives
By applying state of the art neutron optical techniques the performance of most neutron beamlines can be improved considerably. The investment for neutron optical devices is by far lower than for comparable improvements of the flux of the neutron source. Compact components such as benders and focusing devices can normally be installed without any major reconstruction of the instrument.
