STI designs and manufactures magnetic insertion devices called wigglers and undulators. These consist of a pair of opposing magnet arrays, which create an oscillating magnetic field between the gap separating the arrays. A high-energy electron beam passing through this gap parallel to the arrays will wiggle back and forth in its trajectory because of the periodic magnetic field, thus the name wiggler. When the electrons wiggle they emit intense electromagnetic radiation. In fact, our wigglers are used to produce the most intense sources of tunable x-ray radiation available in the world. This x-ray radiation is important for advanced materials and biological research.

STI has delivered over 50 wigglers and undulators to customers around the globe. Photographs of a magnet array and undulator are shown on this page.
