Superconducting magnets for Neutron, muon, X-ray scattering and diffraction applications

Superconducting magnets for Neutron scattering, muon scattering, X-ray scattering, diffraction

Oxford Instruments is proud to have pioneered the design of magnet systems for neutron scattering. We can combine field orientation, field strength(up to 15T), neutron access and low temperature to provide you with a uniquely powerful measurement platform. Greater field strength enables a larger number of superconductors to be studied above their critical fields where superconductivity is supressed. .

To ensure optimum operation in neutron scaterring applications, all our magnets have specific features such as:

·  Parallel and transverse field access

·  No liquid helium in the beamline. Direct access for neutron beam.

·  Simple integration with the beamline infrastructure

·  Easy and quick sample change and cool-down.

·  In neutron scattering the required access to the sample region for the incident and scattered beams can be very large, and requires the use of a split pair magnet geometry. Support for the strong attractive forces between the coil halves is achieved by wedge type spacers or aluminium rings.

Oxford Instruments NanoScience has been involved in numerous custom projects and is keen to discuss your special requirements.

NEW PRODUCT INNOVATION!

Reduced dependence on liquid cryogen maintenance with helium recondensing options.

We can now offer magnet and low temperature insert systems with integrated helium recondensing options. By fitting a closed cycle refrigerator into the cryostat it is possible to redense the helium evaporated through normal use of the system. An external circuit can also be provided to recover the liquid helium that is used to cool a low temperature insert.
