Lake Shore Cryogen-free Probe Station Range Extended

Lake Shore have announced the launch of two new probe stations, adding to their range of versatile cryogen-free models. The Model CRX-VF is a micro manipulated probe station used for non-destructive testing of devices on full and partial wafers up to 51 mm (2″) in diameter. It has been designed for the measurement of electrical, electro-optical, parametric, high Z, DC, RF, and microwave properties of materials and test devices such as nanoscale electronics, quantum wires and dots, semiconductors, and spintronic devices. The sister Model CRX-EM-HF is an electromagnet-based micro manipulated probe station for full and partial wafers up to 25 mm (1″) in diameter. Both machines now come with Lake Shore’s new 3-year warranty.

CRX-VF features:

• 2.25 T vertical field superconducting magnet (field dependent on temperature)
• Cryogen-free operation from 10 K to 500 K
• Control stability to 10 mK
• Up to six probe arms
• Up to 51 mm (2 in) diameter wafers
• Sample exchange cycle time of <8.5 h
• Low vibration design: <1 µm at sample stage (X, Y, and Z axes)

CRX-EM-HF features:

• 0.6 T horizontal (in-plane) field electromagnet
• Cryogen-free operation from 8 K to 400 K
• Control stability to 10 mK
• Up to four probe arms
• Up to 25 mm (1 in) diameter wafers
• Sample exchange cycle time of <4.5 h
• Low vibration design: <1 µm at sample stage (X, Y, and Z axes)
• 360° sample stage rotation option
