Liquid Nitrogen Cryostat - Optics is an optical cryostat designed for spectroscopy and photoelectric experiments, providing a vacuum sample environment and rapid cooling using liquid nitrogen.
Working principle- The low-pressure refrigerant enters the cryostat via the liquid inlet and is introduced into the evaporator at the bottom through an internal capillary tube. A heater and temperature sensor are installed on the evaporator. Temperature-controlled vapor is sprayed into the sample chamber to cool the sample; exhaust vapor is released to the atmosphere or a gas recovery device. The sample can be loaded from the top using a sample rod. The bottom uses a compact vacuum cover design, making it suitable for measurements in magnetic fields.
Features- Temperature range 65K–500K (optional up to 700K); high efficiency and fast cooling speed.
- Sample located in a vacuum chamber for an ideal, stable experimental environment.
- Vacuum interlayer equipped with low-temperature adsorbent to increase vacuum holding time and extend liquid nitrogen usage time.
- PT100 platinum resistor temperature sensor for good stability and repeatability.
- Multiple configuration options to meet different testing needs.
- Convenient liquid nitrogen replenishment during use.
- Optical sample holder can be equipped with a pluggable sample card and user-friendly binding posts.
- Customizable according to user requirements.
- Comes standard with 8 measuring leads, expandable to 32.
- Standard window configuration: two fused quartz windows (expandable to five); window material can be changed per requirement.
- Quick sample changes (can be completed within 5 minutes).
- Available sample holder types: liquid, powder/dust, solid and block holders.
