Outline of Final Research Achievements

I have developed a technique to make holes on a gadolinium metal plate by discharge fine hole processing. Two gadolinium plates were stacked and fixed, and 62 holes were made on it using the developed technology. A base for installing these two gadolinium plates in the perfect position was fabricated.The collimator can be used without any optical adjustment at all.Precise measurement was carried out for the manufactured collimator, and it was confirmed that there was distortion smaller than a few microns. I have conducted experiments with light passing through this collimator, and confirmed that light passed through the pin holes. Now we are preparing experiments using neutron beam.
