7. Conclusions
Over the last thirty years neutron spin echo spectroscopy has evolved from an ingenious concept to a powerful workhorse. Its many unique characteristics, including its wide dynamic range and ultra-high resolution, the ability to measure the intermediate scattering law directly, the simplicity of the resolution corrections, and the added advantage of polarization analysis of the scattering from the sample has ensured its position as an indispensable tool in studies of slow relaxation phenomena in all fields of condensed matter research. There is little doubt that the continually increasing sophistication of spin echo instrumentation will enable the effective implementation of powerful time-of-flight NSE techniques at the new high intensity third generation spallation sources now being built in the US and Japan, and being planned in Europe.
