With more than 55 years of experience in enabling scientific research with temperature sensors and instruments, Lake Shore''s expanded mission on fully integrated research platforms provide customers with one source for all of the essential components in their system and the software to coordinate it all. This leads to less variables, less uncertainty, and less setup time.

The MeasureReady™ M81-SSM (Synchronous Source Measure) system from Lake Shore Cryotronics provides a confident and straightforward approach for advanced measurement applications. The M81 is designed to eliminate the complexity of multiple function-specific instrumentation setups, combining the convenience of DC and AC sourcing with DC and AC measurement, including a lock‑in''s sensitivity and measurement performance. An extremely low-noise simultaneous source and measure system, it ensures inherently synchronized measurements from 1 to 3 source channels and from 1 to 3 measure channels per half-rack instrument - while also being highly adaptable for a range of material and device research applications.

In this video, Kevin Carmichael, Director of Applications Engineering for Lake Shore, provides a hands-on demonstration of Lake Shore''s MeasureReady™ FastHall™ Station, a fully integrated tabletop measurement system that offers fast, highly-precise Hall measurements and requires less setup time than similar solutions available today. Ideal for anyone studying semiconductor materials, the station features Lake Shore''s proprietary M91 FastHall™ measurement controller as well as a Windows 10 PC, 1 Tesla permanent magnet, high-precision sample holder, and all the necessary software and cabling to provide a wide range of Hall measurement capabilities.

The revolutionary new MeasureReady™ M91 FastHall™ measurement controller Featuring Lake Shore's patented new FastHall measurement technique, the M91 fundamentally changes the way the Hall effect is generated and measured by eliminating the need to switch applied magnetic field polarity during the measurement. This breakthrough results in faster and more accurate measurements, especially with high field superconducting magnets or very low mobility materials.

Lake Shore Cryotronics Product Manager Chuck Cimino discusses 4 common sources of error that researchers may encounter when performing Hall effect measurements.

This video offers a first look at the unique MeasureReady™ 155 Precision I/V Source, which combines premium performance with unprecedented simplicity for researchers requiring a precise source of current and voltage in the lab. The 155 current and voltage source excels at low-noise signal excitation and provides DC quality noise performance without compromising AC output bandwidth, achieving low noise levels without expensive additional filtering. The video also examines the "built for science, designed for people" features of the 155, including a look at: the front-panel TiltView™ screen that makes operation comfortable at different viewing angles; the modern, uncluttered touchscreen interface with smartphone-like icons, gestures, and menu styles; how easy it is to adjust settings and change output values; and the convenient mobile app that enables a smartphone to be used as a remote control.

Vibrating sample magnetometers (VSMs) have long been the benchmark for characterizing magnet properties in material science laboratories. The 8600 Series, the latest in electromagnet-based VSMs from Lake Shore Cryotronics, raises the bar for magnetometer performance and convenience. These VSMs combine high sensitivity (15 nemu), rapid measurement speed (10 ms/pt), and simple operation in a magnetometer system capable of accurately characterizing a broad range of materials with unprecedented ease, particularly when performing FORC (first order reversal curve) measurements or measuring low-moment materials.

Dodrill discusses the components, features, and versatility of the vibrating sample magnetometer system, highlighting the easily settable magnet pole gaps, including the position that provides for the best sensitivity, and the ease of changing one gap setting to another without having to recalibrate the VSM for a new configuration.
He also covers the role of temperature and gas flow instrumentation that provides for automated variable temperature measurements on both warming and cooling cycle; software control to allow for a quick exchange of samples; saddling of samples within the sensing coils, and auto-rotation; and the three variable temperature options, as well as how simple it is to install and swap out each option in the VSM.
Then demonstrating the system's data acquisition and analysis software, he shows examples of a hysteresis loop and series of FORC measurements and the short amount of time it takes to execute these measurements.

This video chronicles the history of Lake Shore Cryotronics and how it became a worldwide leader in precision measurement products for low-temperature physics and electronic materials research. You will hear what technological innovations and breakthroughs in the worldwide research community influenced the growth and direction of the company, and how Lake Shore Cryotronics is preparing for the next 50 years.
