The MAGNETO-OPTIC modules integrate a magnetic field directly into the cryogenic sample chamber. These add-on modules provide the same stability, automation, and control found in all Montana Instruments closed-cycle cryostats.
Compatible accessories and add-ons allow users to configure the instrument for unique experimental requirements, including optional built-in piezo stages for sample motion.
Performance Benefits
- Demanding magneto-optic applications are simple to setup, with unique designs to preserve full sample and optical access.
- Automatic zero function removes any field stored in the iron poles by using an alternating decreasing field to degauss the poles and effectively eliminate the field with no current present.
- Systems include a Hall Probe calibration fixture, power supply, and water cooling for the magnet.
Configurations
The Magneto-Optic module is currently only available for the 50-class chambers. For larger chambers or higher magnetic fields, external magnets can be seamlessly integrated through the use of modified housing and castle designs. Learn more.
50-Class: 0.7 Tesla Bipolar Magnet
A bipolar magnet is integrated directly into the cryogenic sample chamber with fields up to 0.7 Tesla. The unit inserts magnet poles into two of the four standard optical ports, with bores through the magnet cores to allow laser illumination of the sample. The top optical access port can be configured with a recessed objective for low working distance applications.
The field strength depends on the configuration used, with various pole spacing and pole tip options available. An adjustable radiation shield accommodates unique experimental setups, allowing users to expand or resize the sample space or make adjustments to allow for more optical access options.

The HILA® name stands for High Inertia, Low Acceleration – a platform designed specifically to provide an ultra-stable mechanical environment for the most sensitive cryogenic measurements.
Montana Instruments
The Montana Instruments Cryostation platforms can incorporate precision nanopositioning stages for translating, rotating, or tilting your sample. These are integrated directly into the sample space and include flexible thermal links which provide a thermal connection between the sample and cold platform while still allowing for full stage motion.

The Agile Temperature Sample Mount provides the solution for the highest level of positional stability for step-static and dynamic temperature changes from 4K to 350K while improving the speed to each set point. The unique position stabilizing support structure optimizes stage mechanical stiffness and rigidity while providing the thermal performance required for fast temperature changes. The structure reduces thermal contraction to below 30µm over the entire temperature range from less than 4K to 350K. This technology eliminates the need to re-focus after small temperature changes. Ultimately, you can be confident that an optimized focus will remain stable throughout a measurement.
