The performance of a slow neutron area detector, based on a scintillat
ing glass fiber plate coupled to an intensified CCD, at room temperatu
re, is reported. In the preliminary test single neutron events are det
ected with a spatial resolution of approximately 100 mum (FWHM). Possi
ble improvements are discussed.
