Clifford G. Shull had developed a practical design based on existing x-ray diffractometers, and neutron diffractometers today share the same essential components. 

Neutrons in this energy range are known as thermal neutrons, because typical energies correspond to room temperature see Table 1. Thermal-neutron INS spectroscopy was the first type to be studied and the instrument invented by Bertram Brockhouse in 1952, the triple-axis spectrometer, is stUl a mainstay of inelastic instrumentation at reactor sources. In 1994, Brockhouse, together with the pioneer of elastic neutron scattering (diffraction) Clifford Shull, received the Nobel prize for physics for his invention and subsequent work with it.
