摘要

Neutron spin echo (NSE) spectroscopy is a powerful technique used to probe the internal dynamics and diffusion processes within matter, allowing researchers to quantify how materials respond to changes in external conditions. To fully understand the bulk properties of a material, it is often crucial to investigate dynamic processes occurring on nanometre length scales and nanosecond timescales. NSE spectroscopy provides an exceptional capability to measure such dynamics across a broad spectrum of condensed matter systems, ranging from proteins and quantum magnets to catalysts. In this Primer, we present an overview of NSE spectroscopy, highlighting the instruments used, methods of data collection and representative applications in both soft-matter and hard-matter sciences.
