The Raman user facility is open, by appointment, for use by NIST researchers and their guests.
Scheduling is done informally at the current time.
This facility uses class IIIb and class IV lasers. Users should wear the appropriate safety goggles for the wavelength laser they use. Users must also exercise care in the handling and storage of cryogens, such as hand protection during liquid helium and liquid nitrogen transfers. There are toxic solvents and heavy metals, as well as UHV components in this facility.
