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
