Neutron Soller

The soller collimator is a collimator with parallel, rectangular foils. It is based on our well-proven collimator designs that have been around even before the founding of JJ X-Ray.

Most of the Soller Collimators find application in intermediate radiation environments in which mostly gadolinium oxide coated PETP foils are used.

For further details, please see examples in our collimator catalog.
