NMIJ/AIST develops, maintains, and supplies national standards for neutron fluence and neutron emission rate, and can calibrate the response of neutron detectors and the emission rate of neutron sources. The techniques and facilities used in these standards will be introduced in this presentation. In addition, recent efforts to develop neutron measurement techniques for medical applications will be also presented.
