Beamlines by Technique

BioXAS-Spectroscopy

BioXAS Spectroscopy is a set of two beamlines specifically designed to measure the XAS spectra of transition elements in bulk biological samples with diluted concentrations.


Far-IR - Far Infrared Spectroscopy

Far-IR provides infrared light 100 – 1000 times brighter than standard laboratory sources, allowing the spectroscopic study of molecules with much higher precision and sensitivity.


Mid-IR - Mid Infrared Spectromicroscopy

Mid-IR provides a state-of-the-art Fourier Transform IR spectrometer and microscope to supply diffraction-limited spatial resolution to an ever-widening range of experimental configurations. Research and development will explore new experiments and re-examine existing techniques by applying the advantages of high brightness infrared synchrotron light.


VESPERS - Very Sensitive Elemental and Structural Probe Employing Radiation from a Synchrotron

VESPERS is a hard X-ray microprobe beamline capable of providing a high level of complementary structural and analytical information.
