- Controlled Background Radiometric Facility - provides the calibration of large-area, vacuum-operational,
infrared blackbody sources for space-based civilian, defense,
and industrial applications.
- Electron Beam Ion Trap (EBIT) - a facility for study of the properties and applications of
highly charged ions.
- Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Facility - provides a non-destructive probe for measuring the structure
and concentration of absorbed dose by ionizing radiation.
- EUV Optics Fabrication and Characterization Facility - measures the reflectance or transmittance of extreme ultraviolet
(EUV) multilayer optics such as mirrors, filters, and gratings as a function of
wavelength, angle of incidence, and position of the optic.
- High-Resolution UV and Optical Spectroscopy
Facility - houses the most powerful spectrometers in the world for
observation of emission and absorption spectra in the soft X-ray to near
infrared regions.
- W.M.
Keck Optical Measurement Laboratory - a central facility currently at
JILA that provides a suite of general purpose optical measurement and
characterization instruments to the researchers at JILA including
nanofabrication facilities.
- Low-Background
Infrared Radiation Facility - measures total radiant power from sources
such as cryogenic blackbodies in a large vacuum chamber with radiant background
noise levels less than a few nanowatts.
-
Magnetic
Microstructure Measurement Facility - provides the capability for
imaging surface magnetic microstructures with very high spatial resolution by a
variety of methods.
- Medical-Industrial Radiation Facility
(MIRF) - houses an electron accelerator in a user facility for the medical
and industrial radiation communities to address issues in radiation
metrology, radiation effects, and the uses of electron and high-energy
photon beams.
- Neutron Imaging Facility (NIF) - one of
the world's premier user facilities for neutron imaging and related neutron
optical measurements. Neutron imaging is an essential tool for hydrogen
fuel cell research.
- Neutron Interferometer Facility
(NIOF) - one of the world's premier user facilities for neutron
interferometry and related neutron optical measurements.
- Radiopharmaceutical Standardization Laboratory - provides calibration services for the gamma-ray-emitting radionuclides
used for diagnostic and therapeutic nuclear medicine.
- Synchrotron Ultraviolet Radiation
Facility (SURF III) - a 405 MeV electron
storage ring producing radiation from the soft X-ray region to the infrared is
the source for a user facility for studies in radiometry; atomic, molecular,
biomolecular, and solid-state physics; surface and materials science;
electro-optics; and surface chemistry and radiation effects on matter.
