Metrology Light Source (MLS) Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) The Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), Germany’s national metrology institute, is using synchrotron radiation for metrology and related applications for research and industry. In this context, PTB extends its activities with a new storage ring, the Metrology Light Source (MLS), designed and built to meet dedicated demands for metrology. The MLS is located in the vicinity of the BESSY II storage ring facility in Berlin-Adlershof (Germany) and started operation in spring 2008. At its beamlines, the MLS offers capabilities for precision measurements and calibrations in the spectral range from the far-infrared / THz to the extreme ultraviolet (EUV), thus complementing the activities of PTB at BESSY II, which cover the short-wavelength spectral ranges from the EUV to the X-ray range. At both facilities, PTB offers metrological services to customers and cooperation partners, from routine calibrations to customized metrological solutions.
