Overview

Materials Lab XM

Our line of Materials Test Systems test combined electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties of dielectrics, insulators and electronic materials. These systems include specialized accessories: High Voltage Amplifiers, Cryostats, Furnaces, and Sample Holders for liquids, powders, and solid materials.

The Materials Lab XM users the same XM based platform to deliver ModuLab performance to a focused application, the study of Materials. This focused design allows this instrument to occupy a small footprint. ModuLab software includes integrated equivalent circuit analysis, MultiSine and Harmonic Analysis for non-linear materials.

Highlights

Impedance range from 1 mOhm to 1 TOhm (1E15 Range)
Small footprint and application-focus design
Auxiliary measurement port for synchronized measurement of optical, mechanical or other transducers.
Instant switching between time Domain (IV, fast pulse) and AC (C-V, impedance, Mott-Schottky) measurements without changing sample connections
Low frequency to 10 µHz for degradation, trap state and material purity studies
XM-Studio software is included with all XM Series systems
Materials Lab XM impedance accuracy contour plot highlights Solartron's best in class measurement performance.

Applications and Software

The Materials Lab XM can perform time domain (DC) and frequency domain (AC) tests. Accessories control temperature from cryostat to furnace levels and integrate through software control with the core measurement electronics to create a system to study a wide range of materials. ModuLab XM platform systems can be expanded for electrochemical or photoelectrochemical experiments.

Materials Lab XM’s impedance accuracy contour plot highlights Solartron’s best in class measurement performance.
