A 77 K nitrogen-cooled cryostat system designed for microscopy applications.
77 K - 500 K temperature range
Quick cooldown time and low Nitrogen consumption
Very compact design and short working distance
Low cryogen consumption: Brings significant benefits in terms of running cost
Simple: The experimental windows and sample holders can be easily changed
Versatile: A range of window materials are available. Please contact your local sales representative for more information
Software control: Oxford Instruments electronics products are controllable through the software using RS232, USB (serial emulation), TCP/IP or GPIB interfaces. LabVIEW function libraries and virtual instruments are provided for Oxford Instruments electronics products to allow PC-based control and monitoring. These can be integrated into a complete LabVIEW data acquisition system
Temperature range: 77 to 500 K
Temperature stability: ± 0.5 K
Liquid nitrogen consumption rate: 0.5 l/hr (nominal)
Room Temperature to base temperature: < 10 min with pre-cooled transfer siphon
Sample change time: approx. 30 min (cryostat must be warmed up to access the sample space)
Sample position stability: designed to give positional stability of the sample holder of approximately 1 µm
Cryostat weight: 0.4 kg
A typical system comprises of:
Micro-FTIR: Study of molecular bonds in crystal lattices
Micro-Raman Scattering and inelastic light scattering: Study of molecular energy levels
Micro-luminescence: Studies of Quantum Dot structures in AS/GaHS
Micro-Photoluminescence / Micro-Photoluminescence: Study of semiconductors
Micro-luminescence: Quantum systems, dots/wires/wells
