New Equipment Added

WCUS now has access to a LCS-100 Solar Simulator. This simulator will provide an equivalent of 1 sun irradiance across the UV and visible spectrum matching that of the Sun. To use this equipment in your studies please contact Jack our platform manager, to discuss about your needs.

Expanded Flurolog Capabilities

WUCS' Flurolog has received a new detector which will allow for time-resolved photoluminescence across the mid-IR range. This detector increases our ability to measure time-resolved data across the whole detectable spectrum on our Flurolog (290-1600 nm). To use this equipment in your studies please contact Jack our platform manager, to discuss about your needs.

IR beamline aces reproducibility

The IR beamline has been undergoing rigourous refining and further testing and has beautifully reproduced data from published results. See the results gallery to view this new exciting data of N-methyl pyridone in ACN excited at 267 nm.

Optical pump, terahertz probe spectrometer

The optical pump, terahertz probe spectrometer is up and running! Thanks to Maurizio and Mick for their hard work on the setup for this beamline and for testing it. Currently we can pump between 2.5um and 9um wavelengths, and shorter wavelengths will be available soon. Samples can be measured in vacuum with the option for cryogenic temperatures also to be implemented soon. The conductivity dynamics can be probed up to 3ns after photoexcitation.

Tables Installed!

The laser tables for the new WCUS facility have now been installed. It took a whole day to move all three or four tonnes of optical bench, but they are all in the right place and to the design. Next step - laser installation.
