A new app note discusses the various methods used to mount a wafer in a cryogenic probe station, and compares the advantages and disadvantages of each.

App note on how to use 8600 Series VSM to measure the vector components of magnetization and torque curves for magnetically anisotropic materials

Learn how to install a temperature sensor correctly in a cryogenic application and avoid common sensor installation errors by attending an upcoming webinar

Now available for download, the Hall Effect Measurement Handbook is a valuable, comprehensive resource for both new and experienced material researchers.

Follow us on Instagram, where we have been highlighting our people as part of National Engineers Week and International Day of Women and Girls in Science.

NASA recently released a map of the US contributors to the James Webb Space Telescope, on which Lake Shore is excited to be included.

CS Nano Letters paper references use of 8425 system with cryogenic probe station for anomalous Hall effect study of graphene/magnetic nanoparticle device

In this Lake Shore Academy video, we discuss the Hall effect and explore the procedure of conducting Hall effect measurements on a semiconductor material.

Many product specifications are designed to sell rather than inform, often omitting key details like long-term accuracy, environmental conditions, or statistical confidence. To avoid misleading claims, critically compare specs across manufacturers and look for transparency in how performance is measured and reported.

A summary of many units used in magnetic measurements as well as a white paper covering the 5 most common errors in magnetic measurements.

A case study examines how our 2Dex™ Hall sensor, in combination with our F71 teslameter, enabled the Quantum Sensors Group at Cambridge University to verify their experimental 3-axis field generator setup — without experiencing noticeable error due to PHE.

New M91 FastHall controller video highlights how it is simpler, more convenient, and provides better measurements faster than traditional Hall solutions.

In many cases, a DIY solution that pairs a high-speed teslameter and a Hall probe with a motorized platform is better than an expensive off-the-shelf field mapper.

ASC Photonics paper on magneto-optics research references the use of Lake Shore VSM for characterizing thin-film samples used for monolithic optical isolators.

Lake Shore VP of Strategic Planning, Rob Ellis, discusses with AZoNano the benefits of the MeasureReady M91 FastHall measurement controller for researchers

Van der Waals heterostructures offer researchers an opportunity to tailor architectures by 2D material layering; Lake Shore products have aided in this work

Measuring the magnetic properties of proxy samples aids in palaeoclimatology research. A recently published paper references the use of a Lake Shore 8600 VSM for obtaining magnetic domain state and first-order reversal curve (FORC) data for three multi-proxy lake sediment samples from Tasmania.

A new video from YouTuber and science enthusiast Brainiac75 features our F71 teslameter and 3-axis probe to demonstrate a fascinating property of Earth’s magnetic field that you may not be aware of.

A noteworthy application in which the Model 372 AC resistance bridge has been used by researchers from Brookhaven National Lab and the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) at Florida State University to accurately and precisely perform resistivity measurements at very low temperatures

The AC field Hall measurement method offers an advantage over the traditional DC method, namely, when tiny Hall voltages are involved, as shown in a Tyndall National Institute paper detailing experiments with phosphorus monolayer doping of silicon on insulator substrates with nanoscale dimensions
