PPMS® (Physical Property Measurement System)

The PPMS® from Quantum Design is a unique measurement system which allows the user to perform a variety of automated measurements. The wide temperature range of (0.4 K) 1.9 – 400 K and magnetic fields up to ± 16 Tesla makes the PPMS® to the most versatile system of its kind.

Work-in-Progress: PPMS-Dynacool

The DynaCool combines the PPMS with a pulse-tube cooler and offers a cryogen-free measurement system.

Features:

Sealed sample chamber with 26 mm diameter sample access

Novel sample mounts couple easily to the 12 electrical leads built into the cryostat insert

The Model 6000 is a self contained microprocessor-controlled device, eliminating the need to use or purchase external bridges, current or voltage sources or lock-in amplifiers.

Continuous Low-Temperature Control - maintains temperature below 4.2 K for indefinite periods of time and offers smooth temperature transitions when warming and cooling through the 4.2 K

Temperature sweep mode

MulitVu control software

Magnet Options:

7, 9, 14 and new 16 Tesla magnet

Split-coil 7 Tesla transverse magnet

Measurement applications:

Heat Capacity

Heat Capacity Measurement System

- Completely automated relaxation technique from 1.9-400 K

- Integrated data acquisition electronics and analysis software

Helium-3 Refrigerator

- Continuous operation down to 0.5 K (0.4 K in one-shot mode for approx. 0.5 h)

- Designed for heat capacity and resistivity measurements

Magnetometry

Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM)

- RMS Sensitivity: < 10-6 emu with 1 sec averaging

- Optional 1000 K oven

AC Susceptibility & DC Magnetization Option (ACMS)

- Digital signal processing for increased sensitivity: 10-8 emu (AC); 2.5 x 10-5 emu (DC)

- Direct phase nulling technique measures and cancels background AC phase shifts at every measurement

Torque Magnetometry

- Magnetic moment measurements via the magnetic torque = m x B

- Designed to measure moments of very small anisotropic samples

Ultra Low Field (ULF)

- Reduces residual field to < 0.05 G

Electro-transport

DC Resistivity

- Four independent channels for performing dc resistivity

AC Transport

- For performing Hall Effect AC Resistivity, I-V Curve Tracing, and Critical Current measurements

- 1 nV sensitivity, nW resolution at 2 A

- Drive amplitude 10 µA to 2 A – Important information (PDF, 214 KB)

Horizontal & Vertical Sample Rotators

- Thermometer located on rotator platform

- Precision, stepper controlled rotator

Multi-Function Probe

- Direct axial ports to the sample stage are provided to install light pipes, fiber optic cables, microwave guides and/or extra electrical leads.

Thermal Transport

AC Resistivity ρ

- Measured by using precision DSP current source and phase-sensitive voltage detection.

Thermal Conductivity κ

- Measured by applying heat from the heater shoe in order to create a user-specified temperature differential between the two thermometer shoes.

Seebeck Coefficient α

- Measured by creating a specified temperature drop between the two thermometer shoes – just as it does to measure thermal conductivity. However, for Seebeck coefficient the voltage drop created between the thermometer shoes is also monitored.

Thermoelectric Figure of Merit ZT

- Determined here simply as the algebraic combination α2T /(κρ) of the three measured quantities – thermal conductivity, Seebeck coefficient, and AC electrical resistivity.
