N2 - A new ultra-high-resolution neutron spin-echo spectrometer at the ILL, Grenoble, extends the time range for measurements of the intermediate scattering function S(q, t) far beyond what has previously been possible. This new dynamic range approaching the microsecond opens up the possibility for exploring dynamic phenomena which have been previously unobservable. The various design ideas for the three operational modes (standard, neutron optical focusing, and time of flight) will be presented. The standard and focusing configurations are currently operational. In the normal mode, Fourier times between 0.03 and 360 ns and momentum transfers q between 0.01 and 0.6 angstrom-1 are accessible. Under focusing conditions, the smallest attainable q is about 0.002 angstrom-1, and closes the gap to light scattering. Two examples of experiments will be presented: the reptation dynamics in an entangled linear polymer melt, and the superparamagnetic fluctuations of magnetic monodomain nano-particles.
