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 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
