THE HUMBOLDT-HIGH-MAGNETIC-FIELD-CENTER IN BERLIN

We introduce concept and possibilities of the HUMBOLDT High Magnetic Field Center at the Physics Department of the HUMBOLDT-University in Berlin. The facility includes steady and pulsed magnetic fields up to the megagauss regime. In detail steady magnetic fields using a superconducting solenoid up to 20 T, pulsed fields up to 50 T using nondestructive coils, and megagauss fields using the single- and multi-turn coil technique are provided. As complementary spectroscopic components optically pumped laser systems (10 mum-2.6 mm) and backwave oscillators (250 mum-7.5 mm continuously) are available.
