Mission & Interests
Goals: Elettra - Sincrotrone Trieste S.C.p.A. is a multidisciplinary international laboratory of excellence, specialized in generating high quality synchrotron and free-electron laser light. Its mission is to promote cultural, social and economic growth through: Basic and applied research; Technical and scientific training;Transfer of technology and know-how. The main assets are two advanced light sources, the electron storage ring “Elettra” and the free-electron laser “FERMI”, continuously operated supplying light of the selected "colour" and quality to the experimental stations of 28 beamlines. These facilities enable to characterize material properties and functions with sensitivity down to molecular and atomic levels, to pattern and nanofabricate new structures and devices, and to develop new processes. Ever year scientists and engineers from more than 50 different countries compete by submitting proposals to access and use time on these stations.

Info Members: Elettra is active in a large set of scientific and technological partnerships with regional, national European and global institutes.
Our participation in Europe-wide strategic initiatives, most of which are listed in the ESFRI Roadmap is also organized through the large-scale International Projects financed by the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research (MIUR). In the last years the projects have been: CERIC-ERIC, Elettra, ELI, ESS, Euro-BioImaging, EUROFEL, FERMI, NFFA and SESAME. The LEAPS initiative has moved significant steps forwards in the year 2023. The Consortium and its members have applied with success to several calls of the last H2020 work programmes as well as to the first Horizon Europe calls and are preparing the ground towards becoming an independent legal entity.
