The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), formerly the National Bureau of Standards (NBS), has operated the Synchrotron Ultraviolet Radiation Facility (SURF), based on an electron accelerator, continuously since the early 1960s. SURF I was established in 1961, utilizing a 180 MeV electron synchrotron at NBS in Washington, D.C. This accelerator was moved to the Gaithersburg, MD site in 1968, specifically for the continuation of SURF I operations. It was converted to an electron storage ring, SURF II, in 1974 under contract with the Physical Sciences Laboratory (PSL) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW), and became a national standard of irradiance in the UV and VUV spectral region. To improve its performance in this application and broaden its spectral range, SURF II has been converted to SURF III, commissioned in December 1998. The design and construction of the new system were overseen by PSL and the Synchrotron Radiation Center at UW. SURF III remains a weak-focusing, single-magn...
