title: Upgraded IR beamline at UVSOR.
abstract: BL6A1, a far-infrared (FIR) beamline at UVSOR, originally built in 1986, has been recently upgraded. The upgrade included the introduction of a second FT-IR spectrometer, making it possible to cover the entire FIR-IR range (3-10000 cm(-1)) in one sequence of measurements, without having to open the sample chamber; the beamline has become a more convenient and powerful experimental station than before. The upgrade is also expected to enable such experiments as IR studies of molecules adsorbed on solid surfaces, and time-resolved IR spectroscopies. This paper describes the characteristics of the upgraded BL6A1.
