SQUID Lab
Quantum Design SQUID
MPMS5S Magnetometer
Memorial University
has one of a small number of SQUID magnetometers in Canada,
and the facility has been instrumental over the last ten years in providing
magnetic data for Canadian researchers, which has lead to an emerging
emphasis nationally in the area of molecular based magnetism. One major advantage
at Memorial is the supply of liquid helium through the Physics Department, which
reprocesses the helium boil-off from all superconducting magnet based systems
in Science. With both DC and AC capability, the group is well-positioned to
make exciting contributions to the rapidly expanding field of molecular
magnetism. Collaborations both internally and externally are ongoing.
Room Temperature Faraday Balance
While not as versatile as the SQUID, the room temperature Faraday magnetic
balance is useful for obtaining quick measures of magnetic susceptibility at
room temperature. Interesting samples can then always be run on the SQUID if
desired.
