Processing Time for On-Site Users
Please remember that all on-site users must register well in advance of their scheduled beamtime. US citizens are required to complete registration at least 21 days before their experiment. Non-US citizens must register at least 60 days in advance due to updated DOE screening requirements. Please plan ahead to ensure timely processing and avoid delays to your access.
MOFs in the Light: ALS User Omar Yaghi Receives 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry
The 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to Omar Yaghi, Susumu Kitagawa, and Richard Robson for the development of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). At many different ALS beamlines, Yaghi used a broad range of techniques to characterize MOFs in formats such as small crystals, thin films, and powders, leading to applications in water harvesting, carbon dioxide conversion, and more.
