Our Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) was delivered and installed!!! Many thanks to the students, the facility, and Ciqtek engineers for making this happen! Special thanks to Prof. Nathan Schley for his help throughout this process. This is X-band continuous-wave Ciqtek EPR with an optical window and a temperature range of 4-300 K. We also have the 1.5 T magnet that is ready to be upgraded in the future!

Facility, colleagues, and students tried hard and smartly to unload and move the 1.5 T magnet (~2600 kg) into the building. It took great teamwork to bring the magnet all the way up to the 8th floor! Thank you all! This was a huge project and definitely a moment worth a photo! (And super lucky to have an elevator with a 6,000-lb capacity!)
