Magnetic Testing Lab

Location: ACMS

Instrument: SQUID Facility

photo 1photo 1 Types of measurements and parameters
  • Temperature range of measurement: 4-300 K and 300-700 K (needs oven insert)
  • Range of magnetic field: up to 6.5 Tesla
  • Types of measurements:
    1. DC- measurement (M-T, M-H)
    2. AC measurement (χ’ and χ’’), Frequency range: (0-3000 Hz)


Sample Preparation Instructions

Samples should be vacuum compatible, non-explosive and non-radioactive.

Following are approximate sample requirements:

  1. Thin films: 3mm × 2mm
  2. Bulk or pellet form: 2 – 20mg (~ 3mm × 2mm)
  3. Powders: 2-20mg (depending on the nature), For example, for DC- measurements on ferromagnetic samples, one requires only 1-3 mg of the powder
