As we approach the temporary shutdown for the SLS 2.0 upgrade this autumn, PSI scientist Marianne Liebi looks back on 22 years of scientific excellence with a revolutionary method to study the arrangement of nanostructures in macroscopic samples. The Swiss Light Source SLS was instrumental in the development of this method, which reveals information on the structure of mineralised collagen fibres that make up bones and teeth. It is also useful for studying packaging materials such as carbon fibre composite or new materials based on cellulose. With information on the structure, these materials can be made stronger and tougher. What science did the SLS make possible for you? Join us in honouring the past 22 years of scientific and technical excellence by sharing these with #ThankYouSLS!
