PTB Laboratory at BESSY II


Since 1999, the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), Germany’s national metrology institute, utilizes synchrotron radiation at the storage ring BESSY II in Berlin-Adlershof, continuing the work which started already at the former BESSY I storage ring.

The PTB laboratory at BESSY II is a European center for metrology with synchrotron radiation, used by collaboration partners worldwide. There, PTB offers a broad spectrum of services and calibrations with radiation from the UV to the X-ray range, reaching from routine measurements to powerful metrological system designs in cooperation with partners from industry and research. The measurement capabilities are significantly extended by the Metrology Light Source (MLS). The MLS was developed and is operated by HZB.
