Lake Shore’s cryogenic probe stations provide precisely controlled
environments for non-destructive measurement of the electrical
properties of materials and early-stage electronic devices.
Probe stations enable physical scientists and researchers to conduct
fundamental science through convenient, repeatable measurements
producing consistent results. Probe stations are versatile and flexible
research platforms that can be used in dedicated applications or as
multi-use community research assets.
Typical applications include sampling I-V and C-V curves over a wide
range of temperatures, measuring microwave and electro-optical
responses, characterizing magneto-transport properties in variable
magnetic fields, Hall effect measurements to understand carrier
mobility, and a variety of other material studies.
