T3, the new polarised cold neutron reflectometer developed by the Neutron Optics Service at the ILL, in strict collaboration with the Design and Calculations Service, is now fully operational. Congratulations and a big thank you to everyone involved…

Ionic conduction is a key processes in energy materials. Understanding it in detail is essential for developing more performant batteries and fuel cells. A recent article provides a tutorial and research review on the role of neutrons in advancing…

The ILL has just received a firm commitment from its Associate countries, France, the UK and Germany, to continue operation until 2033. “We have been working very hard to secure a unanimous commitment from all three Associate countries and are…

Recently published findings from experiments carried out at the ILL and at SINQ confirm monochromatic small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) as the definitive go-to method to characterise multiband superconductivity in a material.

A team of researchers at the ILL investigated how salt alters the shape of lipid vesicles.

The first reactor cycle of 2025 at the ILL started this week. It will go on for 63 days, at a power of 42.5 MW.

As a long-standing partner of Université Grenoble Alpes (UGA), the Institut Laue-Langevin is happy to play a key role in the GATES project (Grenoble ATtractiveness and ExcellenceS) - an ambitious initiative designed to foster top-level research and…

Researchers designed novel membranes to extract precious lithium ions from brine solutions and used neutrons to obtain a deeper understanding of their mechanism

As part of the Polish Scientific Member partnership, the ILL welcomed ten students and two supervisors from Poland for an intensive week-long training designed to introduce them to the world of neutron scattering.
