MAP-Lab: Low-temperature laboratory

Low-Temperature Equipment

He3-He4 dilution cryostat: This cryostat allows to work at temperatures as low as 15mK.
 

He3 cryostat: This flexible cryostat allows quick and flexible measurements in a wide temperature range (from 0.3K to room temperature)..

High-Magnetic-Field Equipment

3D-vector superconducting magnet: This magnet allows the application of high magnetic fields in arbitrary directions, being a precious tool for the study of anisotropic magnetic materials or quantum properties dependent on the direction of the applied magnetic field, such as quantum tunneling of the magnetization in SMMs..

High-Frequency Microwave System

An Agilent Technologies high sensitivity Vector Network Analyzer, working at frequencies from 45MHz to 110GHz, is available for microwave excitation experiments. This system will work at higher frequencies with the use of external multipliers that will soon enhance the high frequency capabilities of our lab.

Magnetic Measurement Techniques

 

Several measurement techniques are available in our lab. High sensitivity micro-Hall magnetometry and high-frequency Electron Paramagnetic Reson-ance (EPR) spectroscopy are the main tools for characterization of quantum properties of SMMs.

 

New techniques will result from hybridization of existing measurement techniques. This new techniques will be designed in order to study quantum dynamical properties of the magnet-ization in SMMs. Real-time fast magnetometry and spin-echo experiments will be combined for this purpose.

MAP-Lab construction history

July 2004

This was the status of our lab in the summer of 2004. Lot of work to do. My son says that we should call Bob the builder to work in it!
