Platforms

• Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS)

PPMS is a cryogenic platform used to carry out temperature and magnetic field dependent physical measurements. Transport measurements, such as resistivity, Hall effect, Seebeck effect, magnetoresistance, as well as capacitance and magnetocapacitance, pyroelectric and ferroelectric measurements can be performed. By means of a sample rotator, it is possible to easily measure anisotropic properties of single crystal samples. The measurements are controlled by using LabView and Visual Basic programs.

Temperature range: 2 to 400 Kelvin
Maximum magnetic field: 9 Tesla

Options:
- Heat Capacity
- Thermal Transport (AC resistivity, Seebeck, Thermal conductivity)
- Torque Magnetometry
- Vibrating Sample Magnetometer
- Sample Rotator
- Scanning Probe Microscopy by attocube Systems

• Probe Stations

Two probe stations with 4 probe micro manipulators are available:

- Janis probe station for low temperature measurements (5 K - RT)
- Custom-made probe station with high temperature Thermo chuck (RT - 900 K)
