Quantum Design PPMS 9 Tesla with Evercool II

This is the first of two PPMS systems in the facility. It provides magnetic field up to 9 T and temperatures from 1.7 K to 400 K. Users are able to perform DC magnetic moment, AC magnetic susceptibility, 2- and 4-wire magnetoresistance, photoconductivity, and Hall effect.

This system benefits from the PPMS EverCool-II™ dewar, which is the second generation of low-loss dewars with integrated Helium liquefier for the PPMS system from Quantum Design. It allows the continuous operation of the PPMS System without the supply with liquid Helium. The system is cryogen free for the user, and can hold temperatures below 2 K indefinitely.
