with a white, and hence high-intensity, incident neutron beam, enabling a fast and precise measurement due to the improved (in fact, FULL) interference contrast. A dual sample of thickness D each inserted in both gaps of path I (or path II) of the IFM with its surfaces aligned parallel to the IFM Bragg planes yields an exactly non-dispersive phase given by 1 Nb N b 1 c a a I II 4D , 2 4d 2d (91) and the phase difference between path I and II equals, 1 Nb N b 1 c a a III 8D . 2 4d 2d (92) Fig.56 Dual Si-sample mounted on a plate. 104
A 124 mm wide symmetric {220} LLL IFM [158] fabricated by Prof. Rauch′s group at the Atominstitut in Vienna, with 50.4 mm gaps between successive blades operating at a Bragg angle of 38° for 2.36Å neutrons, constrains the maximum allowed thickness of the dual sample to 18 mm due to beam widening in the mirror blade. The source-wise contributions to b c /b c for the Si sample are listed in LHS of Table 4 for the Ioffe et al. experiment [127] and in RHS for our Table 4: Comparison between various b c /b c contributions at Ioffe et al. [127] and in the proposed experiments with dual Si-sample.
