A method of monochromating a pulsed neutron beam, whilst achieving focusing in space and time, is proposed using an array of crystal monochromators arranged along the incident beam. The method has been verified experimentally using copper monochromators on the Harwell electron linac pulsed neutron source. Its application to high intensity pulsed neutron inelastic spectrometers is indicated.
