Various steps go into accurately characterizing new devices, especially when measuring electrical signals, voltage, and current. Our upcoming July 20 MRS webinar will cover these steps, discussing [...]
Some magnetic materials, such as nanowires, nanoparticles, and thin films, typically possess weak magnetic moments. This is due mainly to the small amount of magnetic material present. Therefore, [...]
Newly published research into a unique class of cobalt ferrites references the use of our 8600 Series VSM for various detailed first-order reversal curve (FORC) measurements to both better understand [...]
When characterizing a device, you often look for a small response to some sort of stimulus, such as AC current. But frequently, this is being done in the presence of a DC offset as well as a lot of [...]
Published this week in PNAS and reported on by Phys.org as well as mass media, a new paper describes the use of geomagnetic field data to “reconstruct biblical military campaigns” – an interesting [...]
We’ve released a new version of software for our 8600 Series VSM system. In addition to numerous improvements for system stability and usability, the 2.0 release features:
For researchers requiring higher applied magnetic fields than our 4- and 7-inch 8600 Series VSMs, we now offer a 10-inch electromagnet version (Model 8610). Providing fields as high as 3.6 T (>36 [...]
If you're planning to perform low-level electrical measurements in a low-temperature environment, such as to characterize samples in a cryostat or dilution refrigerator, then this new app note may be [...]
An AIP Advances article just published online details recent research into a “unique class” of nanocomposite spinel Co-ferrites for which our 8600 Series VSM was used for both magnetometry [...]
