PEEM end-station in SOLARIS

PEEM end-station in SOLARIS

09.04.2022
In July 2015 PEEM-end station was delivered to SOLARIS. It will allow the team to complete the installation of the first beamline of the synchrotron. A photoemission electron microscope will make it possible to conduct research in many fields of study, from physics, chemistry, catalytics to material engineering, and even archaeology.

The SOLARIS Centre team has managed to transmit a beam of electrons to the storage ring of the synchrotron and saw the first light at the entry points to the beamlines. The beam was maintained for more than ten minutes, and it went around the ring more than two billion times.
