MPMS

The Quantum Design Magnetic Property Measurement System (MPMS) is an instrument configured to study the magnetic and electrical properties of small experimental samples over temperatures ranging from 400 K down to 1.8 K and magnetic fields of up to 7 Tesla. Electrical transport measurements can be made parallel and perpendicular to the magnetic field by both four-terminal and two-terminal resistance measurements. Such measurements are usually made by applying a sinusoidal AC drive current and measuring the AC voltage response. The current source has a minimum precision of 1 nA and a maximum current of 100 mA with frequencies from 0.1 Hz to 200 Hz allowing measurement of resistances up to 5 GΩ.
