Software
Control/Automation A new software interface completes the flexibility and usability of the MPMS XL. Running under Microsoft Windows the state-of-the-art MPMS MultiVu software interface provides a level of control
for system operation, graphics and data analysis previously unavailable. With MultiVu, simultaneously viewing data files in multiple formats is easily accomplished (e.g. a graph and a text file). Similarly, display of multiple graphs allows for easy comparison of results from different experiments. Operationally, MultiVu is a valuable tool in setting up and editing several measurement protocol files simultaneously.

Reciprocating Sample Measurement System (M130)
Features:

  • New servo powered, shaft-encoded transport allows precision oscillating sample motion

  • New sample rod with low thermal expansion and radial sample centering features

  • New high precision data acquisition electronics, including a digital signal processor

  • New MPMS software revision, including support for all Reciprocating Sample Features:

  • SQUID signal analysis phase-locked to sample motion

  • support of longitudinal and transverse measurement axes sample centering methods

  • support of all measurements with new sample transport (AC, DC, Reciprocating Sample)

  • 16 measurement ranges from 10-5 emu to 5 emu

  • Frequency range: 0.5 – 4.0 Hz

  • Oscillation amplitude range: 0.5 to 50 mm p-p

  • Max. DC scan length: 87mm
