The latest additions to the Linac Coherent Light Source-II will usher it into a new era of discovery.
allowing “unparalleled capabilities” for examining quantum materials—a milestone over 13 years in the making.
“This achievement marks the culmination of over a decade of work,” said LCLS-II Project Director Greg Hays via the . “It shows that all the different elements of LCLS-II are working in harmony to produce X-ray laser light in an entirely new mode of operation.”Despite its “laser” classification, LCLS-II can be thought of more as a massive microscope than a device generating bright pinpoints of light. When powered up, an XFEL creates extremely brightso quickly they can capture behavioral details of electrons, atoms, and molecules on their natural timescales.
LCLS-II’s XFEL, however, offers as many as a million X-ray pulses per second—roughly 8,000 times more often, as well as 10,000 times brighter, than its progenitor. LCLS-II’s
