T-dependent measurements

Using manipulator heater to set sample temperature

Lakeshore Temperature Controller (Lakeshore TC)

1. Make sure that Contol A LED is on (the coldfinger temperature will be used as a reference).

2. On the Lakeshore TC press Setpoint button (6).

3. Dial in the desired temperature for coldfinger (A)*. Sample temperature will be ~10 deg higher.

4. Press Enter.

5. Press Heater Range button and select power. Start with low, if it is not enough - try medium.

6. Press Enter.

There is an Igor Pro procedure that shows temperature graphs and allows control over the setpoint and heater range from the PC.
