The Far-Infrared beamline at the Canadian Light Source, provides both High-Resolution Spectroscopy and Microscopy in the Far-Infrared spectral region (30-1200 cm-1). The Beamline is equiped with a Bruker IFS 125 HR spectrometer with a 9.4 meter OPD. This allow the beamline to achieve spectral resolutions better than 0.001 cm-1. The beamline is also equipped with a custom built Horizontal Microscope which provide microscopy capabilities.
