G-line: Overview

• Three new ultra-high flux synchrotron x-ray beam lines with experimental stations optimized to study dynamically evolving materials, including thin film growth and etching, patterned surfaces, electrochemical interfaces, polymers, liquid crystals, bio-materials, and systems with novel electronic properties.
• These beam lines will be operated separately from, but in close collaboration with, the Cornell High-Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS), which is a National User Facility.
• The G-line stations will form a nexus between the various major materials research facilities across campus that fall under the auspices of the Cornell Center of Materials Research (CCMR).
• Education and Research are combined in mission.
