Abstract
A stroboscopic technique has been developed enabling the real-time response of neutron Bragg reflections to be monitored during the application of highvoltage fields to a crystal. The real-time responses of reflections from triglycine sulphate at temperatures in the vicinity of its ferroelectric/ paraelectric transition show some unusual properties. Some of the recent data from these experiments are presented together with a discussion of the physical mechanisms leading to changes in Bragg reflection intensities.
