| | CBC News: Canadian Light Source to illuminate research |
| | Canadian Light Source is one of a handful of leading-edge synchrotrons in the world that can produce such bright light. | | | The $174-million synchrotron, the Canadian Light Source, is able to generate light millions of times brighter than the sun, allowing scientists to peer inside matter at the atomic level. | | | "That light comes off as a continuum, similar to what you see when the sun shines after a thunderstorm and you get the rainbow effect," said scientist Jeff Cutler of Canadian Light Source. |

| | Applications of Infrared Synchrotron Radiation Workshop |
| | Members of the Canadian scientific community are in the process of building an important new research facility, the Canadian Light Source. | | | Thus, by using infrared light from a synchrotron, we are able to chemically image samples that are too small or too thick to examine with a conventional globar IR source. | | | Moreover, when the source of the IR illumination is the extremely bright light provided by a synchrotron, it is possible to obtain an excellent IR spectrum on the order of 10 x 10 microns. |

| | After 8 years of effort by scientists, the Canadian Light Source was approved on March 31, 1999. | | | Synchrotron light is an accelerator-based light source that covers the complete electromagnetic spectrum from infrared to hard X-ray. | | | Aside from the visible, near-IR and near-UV where lasers are generally superior, the properties of synchrotron light far surpass those of alternative light sources. |
