Far Infrared Spectroscopy
Overview Beamline Webpage
This beamline can provide IR light that is 100 – 1000 times brighter than standard laboratory IR sources, allowing the spectroscopic study of molecules with much higher precision and sensitivity; coupled to a Bruker IFS 125 HR with a 9-compartment-scanning arm, spectral resolution ? 0.001 cm-1 can be achieved.
The Far-IR Beamline is accepting proposals for high resolution studies in the spectral region between ~120 - 1000 cm-1. Furthermore, there are Coherent Synchrotron Radiation (CSR) shifts available for user proposals. These shifts provide very high intensity in the 10-35 cm-1. CSR is still in the testing phase and therefore performance may fluctuate.
Please discuss details of your proposal with the beamline scientist prior to submitting your proposal.
