Molecular Spectroscopy Facility

The STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (link opens in a new window) (RAL) Molecular Spectroscopy Facility (MSF) is available for UK and international scientific research and development. The MSF offers world-class instruments combined with scientific and technical support. We meet the needs of academic and industrial researchers by:

• achieving a spectral resolution of 1 part in 10⁶
• spanning the spectrum from the terahertz to UV
• probing solid, liquid, aerosol and gas phases
• providing facilities for calibration and validation
