abstract = {POLI is a versatile two axes single crystal diffractometer,
mostly dedicated to the investigation of magnetic structures
of single crystals using neutron spin polarization.[1]
Unlike other short-wavelength polarized neutron
diffractometers with Heusler-alloy monochromator for both
polarization and monochromatization, POLI employed
non-polarized double-focusing monochromators in combination
with high-efficiency polarizers. This results in the
enhanced intensity of the polarized neutron flux and
improved resolution. Also the studies with both polarized
and non-polarized neutron diffraction on the same sample
under the same conditions (e.g. wavelength, resolution,
sample positioning etc.) can be performed. A number of
discrete wavelength values from hot (0.29 Å) to near
thermal neutrons (1.15 Å) are available by using Cu (220)
and Si (311) monochromators on POLI. 3He spin filter cells
are used both to produce and to analyze neutron
polarization. This polarization technique is especially
efficient for the hot neutrons. For the thermal part of the
spectrum, a new dedicated supermirror bender polarizer was
developed and is under implementation. POLI is very
versatile and flexible instrument which offers different
measuring techniques. Namely: (1) polarize neutron
diffraction PND (flipping-ratio measurements) using high
magnetic field[2], (2) zero-field spherical neutron
polarimetry SNP using the third generation Cryopad[3], and
(3) classical single crystal neutron diffraction in extreme
environments like high magnetic fields, very low/high
temperatures, high voltage, pressure cells etc. and their
combinations. Rather high flux of hot polarized neutron
makes POLI attractive also for the experiments in nuclear
physics [4] and even in medical research.In this report, we
will show the design of the whole instrument with the
emphasis on the polarization components and extreme
environments. Several examples of applications in resolving
different challenging aspects in crystal, magnetic and
domain structure of complex magnetic materials like
multiferroics, superconductors, heavy fermion compounds and
frustrated systems will be shown.[1] V. Hutanu , Journal of
