Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS) Analytical Service

Overview

The design concept of the Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS) is to integrate fully automated measurement capabilities for electrical, magnetic, and thermal properties on a platform with precisely controlled temperature and strong magnetic fields. The basic functionalities of the PPMS can be divided into the following components: temperature and magnetic field control, DC electrical measurements, and the PPMS control software system. The core hardware of the basic system includes the measurement sample chamber, standard liquid helium Dewar, superconducting magnet with power supply, vacuum pump, computer, and electronic control systems.

For most routine experimental projects, the PPMS is equipped with pre-designed automated measurement software and standard measurement capabilities such as hysteresis loops, resistivity, magnetoresistance, Hall coefficient, and current-voltage characteristics. Additionally, the MPMS-SQUID system is available for detecting weak magnetic signals with higher precision testing capabilities.
