Welcome to the National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (NSRL)

NSRL is the first national laboratory in China, which is located in the West Campus of the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), in Hefei, Anhui Province. The mission of NSRL is to construct and operate the first dedicated synchrotron radiation facility in China, Hefei Light Source (HLS).

The construction of HLS-I included phase-I project (1984-1991) and phase-II project (1999-2004). From 2010, NSRL upgraded to HLS-II. Following its completion, HLS-II is close to the 3rd generation light source, and the facility now runs eleven beamlines and fourteen experimental end-stations, which provide advanced characterization techniques including Infrared Spectroscopy and Microspectroscopy, Combustion and Flame, Mass Spectrometry, Soft X-ray Microscopy, Spectral Radiation Standard and Metrology, Atomic & Molecular Physics, Photoemission Spectroscopy, Catalysis and Surface Science, X-Ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism (XMCD), Angle-resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy.

The superior radiation, together with the well-designed beamlines and experimental stations, allow national-wide scientists to perform interdisciplinary and cutting edge scientific researches from physics, chemistry, material sciences, life sciences and medicine, surface sciences, metrology, instrumentation development, and so on.

As a public research platform and user-oriented scientific facility, we warmly welcome researchers from diverse fields to conduct research with us.

Message from the Director

Established in 1983, the National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (NSRL) pioneered China's first dedicated synchrotron radiation facility—the Hefei Light Source (HLS). Over four decades of sustained innovation, we have executed multiple HLS upgrades, consistently delivering advanced capabilities that empower user research and drive groundbreaking discoveries—particularly in quantum material microstructures and energy catalysis mechanisms, etc.

Building on this legacy, NSRL launched construction of the world-leading Hefei Advanced Light Facility (HALF) in 2023—a transformative fourth-generation low-energy light source. Currently advancing on schedule toward its 2028 operational launch, HALF represents our commitment to global scientific leadership. Moving forward, NSRL will:

Spearhead synchrotron radiation technology innovation to unlock new scientific frontiers;

Accelerate breakthroughs across physics, materials science, life sciences, energy/environment, and industrial applications;

Forge collaborative partnerships with the global research community to co-develop next-generation experimental platforms.

Through these strategic priorities, we will cement China’s synchrotron radiation leadership, fuel national strategic capabilities, and catalyze solutions for humanity’s most pressing challenges.
