VersaLab™ 3 Tesla, Cryogen-free Vibrating Sample Magnetometer
Quantum Design introduces its first portable, cryogen-free cryocooler-based material characterization platform – VersaLab. With a temperature range of 50 – 400K, this 3 tesla platform is perfect for accomplishing many types of materials characterization in a limited space.
Quantum Design introduces its first portable, cryogen-free cryocooler-based Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) – VersaLab. With a sensitivity of better than 10-6 emu/rt-Hz, this 3-tesla VSM has a temperature range of 50 to 400 K.
As with all Quantum Design instruments, VersaLab VSM is a fully automated turnkey system with a user-friendly interface, and utilizes technology developed for Quantum Design’s popular Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS®). VersaLab is specifically designed for magnetic characterization up to 3 tesla and over a wide temperature range without the need of liquid cryogens. Utilizing a new approach to cryocooler equipment design, VersaLab employs a new 4He-based temperature control system and gas flow technology that eliminates the need for liquid cryogens.
VersaLab gives the user:
- Free space in the lab because of its compact size and portability
- Free time while the automated instrument performs measurements
- Freedom from liquid cryogens
- Freedom from cooling water and high power requirements
- A single hardware configuration for all temperatures, fields, and magnetic moments
VersaLab Optix
The VersaLab Optix is the ideal platform for combining photonics, quantum electronics, optics with electro-transport and magneto-optic materials characterization measurements at cryogenic temperatures and in magnetic fields of ± 3 T. The optical breadboard allows a wide range of configurable experimental space seamlessly integrated onto the VersaLab Optix. Various light sources, opto-mechanical and imaging components can be easily mounted and coupled to the cryogenic and magnetic field environment of the sample space. Optional laser light sources or Xenon Arc lamp are available for providing the necessary source for excitation beams for optical and spectroscopy experiments. An integrated compact imaging spectrograph and CCD camera (5X magnification) controlled directly from the Multi-Vu software is also available to automatically collect spectra and sample images as a function of temperature and magnetic field.
Optical Breadboard
- Black anodized aluminum 0.5″ thick
- 1 inch grid of 1/4″– 20 mounting holes
- 2 feet x 3 feet
