SRC Quantum Lunch - Probing Strain-Induced Shifts in Silicon
This project is focused on locally strain engineering silicon nanomembranes. By “nanomembranes” we mean single crystal sheets of Si that are very thin, only a few 10s to 100s of nanometers thick ...

Features
The SRC and Carol Hirschmugl (UW-Milwaukee) have designed, constructed and commissioned a new mid-infrared beamline (IRENI), enabling the opportunity to obtain chemical images with diffraction-limited (or better) resolution in minutes. To learn more about the project, see www.src.wisc.edu/IRENI.
Variable Polarization Beamline
During the recent April Development week, installation of a new variable polarization, VLS PGM beamline was completed with placement of an elliptically polarized Apple II undulator (EPU) in one of these spaces in the northeast corner of Aladdin.
Wisconsin Free Electron Laser (WiFEL) Project
The University of Wisconsin-Madison, in collaboration with MIT, is exploring the feasibility and design of a next generation light source and the broad range of science and technology that it would enable.
Information about the project including workshops held on machine design and feasible science is available on the WiFEL website.
