Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM)
Description
EZ9-HF High Field vector vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) is for the characterization of magnetic materials including powders, thin films and bulk magnetic materials. Allows the study of magnetization and magnetic anisotropy over a wide temperature, field magnitude, and field direction range. Used to determine the magnetic hysteresis curve, i.e. the relation between the magnetic field and the magnetic moment. The hysteresis curve provides the magnetic response of the material under an applied field and is often referred to as the magnetic fingerprint.
Capabilities
- Magnetic characterization (8mm round sample)
- Magneto resistance (2.5 x 9mm sample size)
- Temperature control (78K-1000K / -195C-725C)
- Magnetic field (-2.25 Tesla to 2.25 Tesla)
