- Name: CFMS-PPMS
- Make : Cryogenic Limited
- Model: 5424
- Available modes: VSM and Resistivity
1. VSM Mode
- Magnet able to operate in swept or persistent mode
- Automated gas handling system and calibration procedure
- Pick-up coils located close to the samples for highest sensitivity
- Vibrator fitted with moving coil motion detector for amplitude control
- Rigid and thermally stable carbon fibre sample rod
- Active vibration compensation of the drive motor
2. Resistivity Mode
- The Electrical Transport module provides a capability to perform DC resistance measurements in the range from 100 nΩ to 1 GΩ. Cryogenic offers a selection of sample platforms with different numbers of sample connections and suitable for different sample sizes. Probe wiring options include twisted pairs, miniature coaxial cables (for high-frequency measurements) or triaxial lines (for very low current measurements).
