OptiCool

OptiCool® is a family of cryogen-free closed-cycle optical cryostats for low-temperature optical and magneto-optical measurements. The systems are available in configurations with a 7 T superconducting magnet, a vector magnet, or without a magnet, so they can be adapted to different experimental requirements. They offer automated cooling and precise temperature control in the range of 1.7-350 K, low vibrations, and flexible optical access to a large configurable sample space.

Key Features

  • Cryogen-free closed-cycle optical cryostat

Product description

OptiCool® is designed for scientific measurements of the optical, electrical, and magnetic properties of materials at low temperatures. Stable low-vibration operation supports sensitive optical measurements, and the large configurable sample space enables use in advanced experiments in spectroscopy, microscopy, and materials characterization.

The system uses a cryogen-free closed cooling cycle and offers automated temperature and magnet control depending on the selected configuration. Thanks to multidirectional optical access, it is suitable for transmission and reflection measurements as well as for experiments where precise work with the sample, optical path, and, where applicable, magnetic field is important.

The experimental setup can be customized using interchangeable sample pods, various wiring and feedthrough options, optical windows, objectives, and accessories for precise sample positioning. The assembly can be prepared outside the cryostat and then connected to the system, which makes configuration changes and work with different types of measurements easier.

Typical Applications

OptiCool® is designed for low-temperature optical and magneto-optical measurements in materials research, spectroscopy, microscopy, and quantum technologies. Typical applications include:

  • color centers, such as nitrogen vacancies in diamond
  • quantum optics
  • 2D materials, such as transition metal dichalcogenides
  • spintronics
  • AFM and microscopy
  • MOKE and CryoMOKE
  • Raman and FTIR spectroscopy
  • UV/VIS reflectivity and absorption
  • time-resolved magnetic spectroscopy
  • magneto-excitons
  • anisotropic magnetic single crystals
  • magnetic thin films

Variants

OptiCool® 7 Tesla

An optical cryostat with a ±7 T superconducting split-coil conical magnet, whose field is oriented perpendicular to the optical table. It offers multidirectional optical access and is designed for high-field magneto-optical measurements.

OptiCool® Vector

Magneto-optical cryostat with a 4-1-1 T vector magnet in the Z-X-Y directions. It allows for precise adjustment of the magnetic field orientation relative to the sample and the optical system.

OptiCool® Flex

Non-magnetic variant with a larger working area of 75 × 200 mm, open optical geometry, and a 4K thermal bus for additional cooled components.
