Cryogenic / Magnetic Probing
Advances in the physical sciences are leveraging superconductivity, magnetism, and quantum behaviors in new ways to provide unmatched processing power, reduce energy use, and improve sensor sensitivity.
R&D labs need test and measurement systems with the ability to manifest extreme environments. Quantum computing, quantum sensing, fundamental electrical transport property, and magnetic property studies subject sample materials and devices to cryogenic temperatures approaching absolute zero, often with high magnetic fields or shielding to eliminate these fields. FormFactor partners with Lake Shore Cryotronics and Keysight Technologies to offer researchers a comprehensive suite of tools.
