Resumo

The basic characteristics and the instrumentation of the experimental interferometer setup at the Institut Max von Laue - Paul Langevin (I.L.L.), Grenoble are outlined. The instrument incorporates a triple Laue-case (“LLL-type”) Bragg diffraction interferometer. The interference contrast of a real interferometer crystal as compared to the ideal model is discussed. The diffractometer used for the experiment as well as the environmental requirements are described. As an example, the application of the instrument to the determination of coherent scattering lengths is presented along with experimental results.
