NanoMOKE
This system combines the powerful capabilities of the Durham Magneto-Optics NanoMOKE3 with the flexibility of the closed cycle optical Cryostation for low temperature Magneto-Optic Kerr Effect (MOKE) applications. *
Users would have the full capabilities of the Cryostation closed-cycle optical cryostat, as well as the Magneto-Optic module for their experiments.
Kerr Effect Magnetometer
The NanoMOKE3 is an ultra-high sensitivity magnetooptical magnetometer and Kerr microscope.
The optical head for the NanoMOKE views the sample through a side window on the Cryostation.
There aretwo principle configurations:
- Polar: Sample is mounted
perpendicular to the field. - Longitudinal/Transverse: Sample is
mounted parallel to the field.
The system includes a sample holder
assembly for both setups.
Cryostation® System
The Cryostation provides an automated and controlled environment for low temperature MOKE measurements.
The specially designed chamber integrates seamlessly with the required equipment.
- Low cost, helium-free operation
- Fully-automated control
- Versatile & flexible tabletop
mounting architecture - Optimized temperature
performance & thermal stability
Features
- Includes configurations for Longitudinal/Transverse and
Polar MOKE experiments - Requires minimal effort to switch between
configurations - Sample components utilize exotic materials to minimize
Eddy-Current heating - Custom low-profile electrical connections available

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.
