Lake Shore Cryotronics will be at next week’s Joint MMM-Intermag Conference in New Orleans discussing the company’s 8600 Series VSMs and new MagRS magnetic research system for highly sensitive magnetic material characterization applications.
Featuring a 15-nemu noise floor at 10 s/pt, the 8600 Series VSMs particularly benefit applications involving the characterization of samples that possess weak magnetic moments, such as nanowires and nanoparticles. The VSMs can be ordered in 4- (2.76 T), 7- (3.22 T), and 10-inch (3.6 T) electromagnet versions, all of which feature a 10 ms/pt data acquisition rate—a complete -2 T to +2 T hysteresis loop with 3,000 measurement points can be completed in about 30 seconds. Also available are cryostat and oven options for characterizing over a wide (4.2 to 1273 K) temperature range and a vector option for investigating anisotropic magnetic materials.
The MagRS system offers a modular approach to magnetometry-based research while providing the exact same measurement speed, sensitivity, and ease of use as the 8600 Series. The versatile system can be specified with a 4- or 7-inch electromagnet and has options for not only VSM measurements but also ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) and AC field Hall and FastHall™ measurements.
Like the 8600 Series, the MagRS, when used in a VSM configuration, particularly benefits research involving first-order reversal curve (FORC) measurements. FORC analysis is greatly enhanced by the system’s high sensitivity and the inclusion of Real-Time FORC (RTForc™) software, which enables fully automated FORC data acquisition.
Also at the Joint MMM-Intermag Conference, Lake Shore representatives will be available to answer questions about the company’s:
- Cryogenic probe stations with integrated magnets that support measuring of magneto-transport, electro-optical, DC, RF, and microwave properties at temperatures as low as 1.6 K and in fields to more than 2 T
- Superconducting magnet systems, electromagnets, superconducting magnet power supplies, and electromagnet power supplies
- M81-SSM synchronous source measure system, which offers DC, 100 kHz AC, and mixed DC + AC sourcing and measuring, including a lock in’s sensitivity, for low-level measurements (also introducing: a unique new SMU-10 source measure unit with DC + AC lock-in detection optimized for characterizing the ultra-low voltage regimes of sub-nanoscale and 2D nanomaterials)
- Magnetic test and measurement instruments and Hall (magnetic) sensors for reliable magnetic field measurements
- Hall effect measurement solutions, including the M91 FastHall measurement controller for faster, more accurate, and convenient Hall analysis of materials
- Cryogenic sensors, controllers, and monitors, as well as cryostats and Lake Shore's new automated Infinite Helium system, which makes a LHe cryostat operate cryogen-free
