The Lake Shore Blog

Offer a guide for researchers and engineers on what to look for when selecting a manufacturer: accuracy, calibration services, temperature range, reliability, and support. Use Lake Shore’s products as examples of meeting these criteria for demanding scientific environments.

Cryostat temperature specs vary significantly. Lake Shore’s offerings span from <2 K up to 800 K, depending on the series. This post explains how to match temperature requirements to experimental needs, including ultra-cold quantum research and high-temperature spectroscopy.
