The construction of Steady High Magnetic Field Facility (SHMFF) started on May 19th, 2008. Partial magnets of SHMFF have been open to users since October 28th, 2010. SHMFF passed national acceptance and was fully put into operation on September 27th, 2017.
SHMFF consists of a world-record 45.22 T hybrid magnet, five water-cooling magnets (42.02 T/Φ32, 25 T/Φ50, 20 T/Φ200, 27.5 T/Φ32 and 35 T/Φ50), four superconducting magnets (10 T/Φ100/Φ100, 20 T/SMA, 20 T/NMR and 9.4 T/MRI) and series of experimental systems (transport, magnetic, magneto-optical, extremely low temperature, ultrahigh pressure, STM-AFM-MFM combo, etc.).
SHMFF gives priority to original fundamental research, applied research with important application prospects and high-tech development to improve technical innovation in China, encourages users to undertake national and ministerial major research projects, and welcomes industrial users. Users have been playing a leading role in its operation and opening, which are conductive to feature scientific objectives, prioritize key research fields, and promote important scientific outcomes.
