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.
