An application of the time‐of‐flight neutron diffraction technique to an investigation of the nature of the extinction effect in a single‐crystal specimen is given. It is shown that the wavelength dependence of the extinction can be easily obtained by changing the scattering angle. An estimation of the extinction factor for a CuCl single crystal is given as an example and a comparison of the results with recent extinction theory [Becker & Coppens. Acta Cryst . (1974). A 30 , 129–147; 148–153] is made.
