| Field range | |
| TOULOUSE | 0 ... 90 T (100 T soon) |
| TOULOUSE | 0 ... 90 T (100 T soon) |
| Temperature range | |
| TOULOUSE | 100 mK - 300 K (maximum field 60 T, ambient pressure) 1.4 K - 300 K (maximum field 90-100 T, ambient pressure) |
| TOULOUSE | 500 mK - 300 K (maximum field 90 T) 1.4 K - 300 K (maximum field 60 T or 70 T - rotating insert available) |
| Sample size | |
| TOULOUSE | to be adjusted to have appropriate resistance values (if metallic samples, room temperature resistance should be at least > 10-30 mOhm to have good high-field sensitivity at low temperature) |
| TOULOUSE | Thickness of the sample need to be adjusted to get a resistance at least of the order of few mohms at low temperatures (see also sample holder) |
| Sensitivity | |
| TOULOUSE | lowest noise can be ≃ 0.04 mOhm (for a current of 10 mA) |
| TOULOUSE | Typical noise for low resistance (< 1 ohm) measurements: V = 0.1 µV @ zero field V~1 µV @ maximum field Good contact resistances (< 1ohm) are required to get this typical noise. |
| Measurement range | |
| TOULOUSE | |
| TOULOUSE | Resistance ranging from mOhms to kOhms |
| Typical experiment | |
| TOULOUSE | 4 contact resistivity or Hall effect (possibility to reverse the field direction) |
| TOULOUSE | 4 /6 contact measurements (possibility to reverse the field direction for Hall effect) |
| Sample Holder | |
| TOULOUSE | different sample holders, depending on the probe/magnet
Probes: - 4 mm diameter probe for > 90 T magnets - 7 mm diameter probe for 70 T magnets (6 MJ) - 20 mm diameter probe for long-duration 60 T magnet (4.5 MJ), probe used for pressure cell experiment or big samples |
| TOULOUSE | 2 (3) samples can be measured simultaneously up to 90 T (60 T) Samples are usually mounted on sapphire platelet. Sample + platelet should fit in a diameter of 18 mm (60 T), 6 mm (70 T) and 4 mm (90 T) |
| Sample environment | |
| TOULOUSE | He4 cryostat, He3 inserts, dilution fridge (max field 60 T) High Pressure up to 4 GPa (maximum field 60 T, lowest temperature 1.4 K) |
| TOULOUSE | Gaseous helium from 300K down to 4.2 K, liquid helium or liquid ³He below |
