Services and access

We can help you define your sample characterisation requirements and identify the synchrotron solutions best suited to these needs.

We offer a range of services, from access to the light lines (if you wish to carry out the experiments yourself, with the support of our teams) to the complete performance of the study by our teams, with the delivery of an analysis report.
