Singapore Synchrotron Light Source (SSLS) is a synchrotron radiation facility located on Kent Ridge campus of the National University of Singapore.
History
The SSLS building project commenced in 1997 and concluded in 1999. Following the completion, the Helios 2 storage ring was relocated into the facility, and in 2000, an accelerator system was commissioned along with the construction of a beamline. In October 2001, user pilot operation commenced, starting with a phase-contrast imaging beamline. Additional facilities were subsequently added, and routine user operation was successfully established by 2003.
