abstract = {Because of the neutron’s special properties, neutron
diffraction may be considered one of the most powerful
techniques for structure determination of crystalline and
related matter. Neutrons can be released from nuclear
fission, from spallation processes, and also from low-energy
nuclear reactions, and they can then be used in powder,
time-of-flight, texture, single crystal, and other
techniques, all of which are perfectly suited to clarify
crystal and magnetic structures. With high neutron flux and
sufficient brilliance, neutron diffraction also excels for
diffuse scattering, for in situ and operando studies as well
as for high-pressure experiments of today’s materials. For
these, the wave-like neutron’s infinite advantage (isotope
specific, magnetic) is crucial to answering important
scientific questions, for example, on the structure and
dynamics of light atoms in energy conversion and storage
materials, magnetic matter, or protein structures. In this
primer, we summarize the current state of neutron
diffraction (and how it came to be), but also look at recent
advances and new ideas, e.g., the design of new instruments,
and what follows from that.},
