The Oxford Centre for Applied Superconductivity has a series of new experimental facilities to address the current projects identified with the industrial partners, and new projects that will be initiated as the Centre expands. Researchers in the Centre will also have access to existing facilities in the Department of Physics and Materials.
Experimental facilities in the Materials Department:
|
Powder and texture analysis.
|
|
Low temperature magnetic imaging.
|
|
Flexible cryo-free superconducting vector magnet (9T/3T) platform.
|
|
Thin fim growth of superconducting device materials.
|

JEOL ARM-200F
|
The Department of Materials has always has an extensive range of instruments for electron microscopy and microanalysis.

Experimental Facilities in the Clarendon Laboratory, Oxford Physics
|
16T Physical Properties Versatile Measurement System
|
|
Critical current measurements up to 1000 A.
|
|
A newly upgraded 3MJ capacitor bank will supply energy to create short pulsed high magnetic fields up to 70T.
|

Oxford Instruments 21T Superconducting Magnet
Superconducting magnets up to 21 T with VTI insert to allow temperature sweep between 1.4K to 200 K.
|
|
15-17 T Superconducting Magnets
Superconducting magnets up to 17 T used mainly with home-build probes for transport, torque and specific heat measurements. A VTI can be adapted to allow the temperature to be varied between 1.4 K to 100 K.
