TeraFERMI
A THz beamline at the FERMI Free-Electron-LaserTeraFERMI is the THz beamline presently under commissioning at the FERMI Free-Electron-Laser (FEL) facility. TeraFERMI collects the THz radiation naturally emitted by the electron beam already spent by the FEL undulators, and guide it into a dedicated THz Laboratory. Ultrashort (100's fs) pulses in the 0.1-15 THz range with 1-10 MV/cm electric fields and 0.3-3 Tesla magnetic field will then become available in the FERMI experimental hall. Because of the extremely large fields involved, the beamline can be used to shape material's properties by driving the systems out of equilibrium. Moreover, the TeraFERMI beamline will also provide the perfect playground to study for the first time the coherent THz emission from a seeded 4th generation light source. |

TeraFERMI status
The TeraFERMI beamline started operation in March 2016, when THz photons were first transported in the laboratory. The beamline is open to external users operation.
