FormFactor - HPD Model HE-3-TLSL - Wet Helium-3 Cryostat
-
Sample can be loaded or removed when the cryostat is cold
-
High cooling power with sample in (He-3) liquid (400 mK with 400 microwatt cooling power)
-
Sample probe and a load-lock with gate valve
The Model HE-3-TLSL cryostat is a top-loading system with sample in (He-3) liquid for fast sample exchange. The design allows the sample to be removed from and introduced directly into the He-3 pot while the cryostat is cold. The system also includes a sample probe and a load-lock with gate valve, plus an external gas handling system for safe insertion and removal of the sample in and out of the He-3 chamber.
This He-3 cryostat includes the following components:
- Charcoal sorption pump with heater and thermometer
- 1 K pot with thermometer
- He-3 pot (sample chamber)
- Load-lock
- Sample probe with thermal anchor stage, thermometer, and heater
- IVC can
- External gas handling system with stored He-3 gas
- External sorption cryo-pump
- Operation test
