Facilities
Enabling Physics
These facilities involve complex multi-instrument set-ups that are within
the labs of the various participants and will be made available for collaborative
projects.
- Low-Temperature Magneto-Optical and Magneto-Transport Systems: (OU)
- Quantum transport experiments utilize:
- Oxford Instruments dilution refrigerator with a base temperature
of ~10 mK and a maximum field of 14.5 T and a top-loading 3He
refrigerator with a 0.5 K base temperature and a 9 T (at 4.2 K) magnet.
- Sheena's System
- Optical experiments utilize:
- optical excitation provided by an
Edinburgh Instruments FIRL-100 optically pumped far-infrared laser.
It and the Bruker FTIR spectrometer can be connected to a dewar with
an 8 T split-coil magnet. With the inclusion of several microwave spectrometers,
we cover the wavelength range from 1 cm to 1.5 µm.
- New PL setup
- Optical Spectroscopy Systems: (UA)
- There are eight laser-based labs available containing a variety of laser
sources covering the wavelength range 0.4 to 16 microns and associated
optics and diagnostics. These include OPG/OPA tunable (picosecond and
femtosecond) lasers, tunable dye lasers, nanosecond and picosecond Nd:YAG
lasers, argon-ion and krypton lasers, and Ti:sapphire ps/fs tunable lasers.
