Los Alamos National Laboratory
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory-Pulsed Field Facility
Pulsed magnets for cutting-edge science
Powerful magnets—some of the most powerful in the world—are available to researchers at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory-Pulsed Field Facility (NHMFL-PFF). The maglab is the only pulsed field user facility in the country and a center for exceptional condensed matter physics research. By studying materials under extreme magnetic field conditions, NHMFL-PFF scientists make essential contributions to fundamental materials science, energy research, and stewardship of the nation’s nuclear stockpile.
100 Tesla Multi-Shot Magnet
The Pulsed Field Facility has the world’s only scientific program that has delivered scientific results in non-destructive magnetic fields up to and exceeding 100 tesla.
65 Tesla Multi-Shot Magnet
Our most widely used magnet system for users, the Pulsed Field Facility provides approximately 6,000 pulses each year in four separate user cells.
300 Tesla Single-Turn Magnet
This magnet is capable of producing a field in excess of 300 tesla and is proven to leave the sample probe intact in fields up to 240 tesla. This is currently the NHMFL's highest magnetic field generating capability and requires specialized technique development and sample preparation due to the rapidly changing field.
60 Tesla Controlled Waveform Magnet
This magnet is currently a world-unique capability that allows the user to specify the magnetic field profile optimized for the investigation of physics in very high magnetic fields.
