Convenience can be the difference between energy wasted and time well spent. Building an experiment on the bench is easy and convenient using the configurable sample pod technology of OptiCool®. There are a wide range of innovative pod configurations to accommodate samples large and small. Nanopositioners can be integrated onto the pod to provide high-resolution spatial control within the variable magnetic and temperature environment. Sample pods easily plug into the prewired temperature control column, instantly providing electrical access to the pod via the external connections on the #cryostat. A variety of wiring and feedthrough options are available, including positioner wiring, RF coax, and optical fiber feedthroughs.

Electrostatic Force Microscopy (EFM) is a phase imaging mode used to study imaging variations in the electric field of the sample substrate and therefore study the surface potential and charge distribution. Here, we examined the macroscopic electronic properties of polycrystalline BaTiO3 ceramics, which are governed by potential barriers forming between single grains. With FusionScope®, you get TRUE correlative microscopy. The high resolution of the SEM can be used to easily identify grain boundaries and perform the EFM analysis directly at the region of interest. Plus, FusionScope's software allows users to interactively overlay AFM imaging data onto SEM images while operating the microscope in real time.

Sometimes big things do come in small packages! Our PPMS® VersaLab® is a portable, #cryogenfree cryocooler-based material characterization platform. With a temperature range of 50 – 400 K, this 3 T platform is perfect for many types of materials characterization tests in a limited space. Learn more at qdusa.com

This Halloween, we're diving into a science experiment that's as chilling as it is thrilling—analyzing a bone sample with the FusionScope®! Learn how this correlative microscopy platform offers the perfect blend of SEM and AFM in a frightfully easy-to-use package. 💀🔍 #SpookyScience #microscopy #3Dtopography

Did you know that you can control many aspects your QD instruments using a version of Python called MultiPyVu? We're excited to announce the release of Version 3.1.2! MultiPyVu provides the ability to control the temperature, magnetic field, and chamber status of Quantum Design products using python either locally or via a remote computer. Additionally, it includes commands to control the resistivity option for our DynaCool systems, read the auxiliary thermometer in the OptiCool, and the ability to open and save .dat files. MultiPyVu opens up Quantum Design equipment to better integrate with other measurement equipment. Learn more at pypi.org/project/MultiPyVu.

We started distributing for KP Technology in North America & India earlier in the year and we see a great potential in using these tools to study Perovskite based solar cell based research!

"As the CAD Services Supervisor at Quantum Design, I take pride in overseeing the design processes that are crucial to the development of our innovative instruments. Every day, I have the opportunity to collaborate with talented colleagues and contribute to the company's mission of delivering high-quality, cutting-edge technology to our customers. Working at QD has not only allowed me to grow professionally but also reinforced the value of teamwork and continuous improvement in everything we do." – Cliff Van Nostrand, CAD Services Supervisor #QDpeople

We are thrilled to announce our new distribution partnership with KP Technology Ltd, who offer a diverse portfolio of dedicated Kelvin probes designed for a variety of environments, such as ambient and controlled atmospheres, relative humidity, and ultra-high vacuum. These Kelvin probe systems are now available in North America through us!   KP Technology is a world-leader in scanning Kelvin probe technology, with applications in organic and non-organic semiconductors, metals and metal alloys, thin films and surface oxides, solar cells and photovoltaics, corrosion, nanotechnology, and quality control.
