So because your half ass attempt to find something on Google didn't work, it must not exist? Come on man!
Top result in YT for Neutrino Engine https://youtu.be/6YEO8Qit1Bw
Top result in a search engine not linking to scifi stuff: https://www1.grc.nasa.gov/space/sep/gridded-ion-thrusters-next-c/
There's plenty more info too. Those are just top results from the first page.
Tesla had a fire. A lot of his papers were lost and he was notorious for not having much documentation. The technology matches what some people had claimed to be Tesla's free energy machine. Maybe this wasn't it. No one knows. Just because he didn't experiment with fusion or fission that doesn't mean he didn't experiment with neutrinos. There's billions passing through your body right now. Given they interact with gravity and electromagnetism, it is not that hard to believe Tesla may have figured out how to harness them in some super rudimentary way.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

As a preface I'm a scientist.
Neutrons and neutrinos are different classes of particles. I didn't get any results because you told me the wrong thing to search for. Cursory searches agree with what I said earlier, it's yet another goofy Tesla "free energy" pipe dream. Science has come incredibly far since the early 1900s, no one works as independent inventors or physicists anymore because we have huge institutions and advanced instruments to perform work as a collaboration. Neutrinos only interact with matter very weakly, as you said, so detecting them let alone setting up an absorber is technically challenging. On the other hand the sun gives off a huge amount of energy as electromagnetic waves so it hurts to look directly at it.
Research "photovoltaic solar energy" to learn more.
