Key Specifications
Features
- Integrated variable temperature insert providing sample temperatures between 1.5 K and 300 K supplied as standard with sample rod.
- Standard magnetic fields up to 14 T in a compact geometry, with vector rotate magnet geometries available.
- Optional high performance measurement probes with height adjustment and rotation options.
- Lower base temperature can be obtained using our optional inserts < 300 mK with HelioxVT and < 25 mK with KelvinoxJT.
- Low vibration - suitable for a wide range of sensitive measurements.
- Fast and easy sample change into our separate sealed chamber.
- Low power consumption - operate from a single pulse tube refrigerator.
- No gas flow over sensitive samples - the system uses a static exchange gas around the sample.
- Quick sample change via top-loading probe - the sample can be changed while the system is cold.
- No liquid nitrogen required for operation – the system uses internal cold traps to remove contaminant.
- New and improved 6-month lead time
Measurement probes
Measurement probes are available as fixed sample.
ESD Protected Sample Holders
The PCB and LCC holders are ceramic Aluminium-Nitride (AlN) to optimise thermal conductivity.
Electrical contact plating is Ni free to minimise the remnant field effects in the sample domain.
The following sample holders are available with our range of measurement probes:
- 20-pin LCC with ESD connector
- 16-pin DIP (dual in-line) connector with ESD connector
- 16 contact pad bare PCB for general purpose with ESD connector
- 44-pin LCC – No ESD connector as there is not enough space
- PCB sample holder interface – 44 non-magnetic spring loaded pins to connect to the sample holder PCB.
During the process of mounting the sample into the sample holder, an ESD plug will be inserted. This plug links all the electrical connections to the sample together ensuring that no damaging voltages can be generated across the sample due to ESD.
The measurement cable is a carefully specified cable constructed of 13 twisted pairs, 10 pairs of 26 AWG tinned Cu and 3 pairs of 22 AWG tinned Cu. Each pair is individually screened with a foil screen. Each screen has external insulation to isolate it from all the other screens. Each screen also has a drain wire.
