We see a plethora of sample types and sampling environments at the Mid-IR beamline spanning research sectors.
Each of our endstations provide dry air purge to remove infrared-absorbers from the sampling enviornments such as gas-phase water and atmospheric CO2. If you’re bringing custom sampling environments, have a chat with beamline staff about how we can customize the dry-air purge environment to be suitable for your set-up.
A variety of custom sample environments can be situated onto our microscopes, and we have custom optics available open to new developments to make your experiments work on our beamline. Contact beamline staff to discuss and take a look at the sample preparation tools and equipment available for booking during your experiment.
Mention any custom equipment and tools you’d like to bring to the beamline in your proposal as they will likely require review and approval before they can be brought on-site.
We have a temperature controlled stage which can be used to keep samples at a specific temperature and for in-situ temperature experiments. Set-up a meeting with us to talk more about how the Linkam FTIR600 stage can work for your experiment.
