Inert Gas Glove Box @LIST
This Ferrovac Ultra High Vacuum Technology glovebox configuration, installed at Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST), is equipped with our FastLoader Cryo Station and Docking kit for the Ultra High Vacuum Cryo Transfer Module (UHVCTM). It allows to prepare samples in a liquid nitrogen bath and transfer afterwards with the Ferrovac Ultra High Vacuum Cryo Transfer Module (UHVCTM) to different analytical devices at cryo and UHV condition.
Many thanks to Olivier De Castro and the whole team at LIST which helps to realize this project.
Ultimate control of the environment in terms of atmosphere and temperature is crucial for cutting edge research in experimental pysics and material science. Important sample preparation tasks such as plunge freezing and mounting of the raw sample onto a sample carrier need to be done inside an inert gas glovebox in order to avoid corrosion or other unwanted alterations of the sample. Once the sample is at cryogenic temperature and mounted to a sample carrier, the speciment needs to be transported to analytical instruments ideally under very good vacuum conditions while maintaining sufficiently low temperature.

"We've been quite impressed with the build quality and design of everything. The suitcase works great. I'm used to living in fear of dropping samples in UHV but the design of the suitcase, manipulators and sample storage make moving samples around fairly low stress. We are very satisfied customers."

Cryo Sample Receiver with 13 electrical Contacts, arbitrary orientation
Common flag style holders do not reproducibly snap into position, nor do they have electrical contacts. With this design, we are adding the possibility of wiring up devices on flag style holders to up to 13 electrical contacts.
This particulair version is optimized for cryogenic applications and can be loaded/unloaded in any kind of geometrical orientation (i.e. vertical, upside-down..).
RECOMCREC13V2
The receiver is equipped with a lever mechanism, pressing the sample plate down onto the cold surface. Locking is engaged by approximately a quarter turn using the pincer on the wobblestick used to handle the sample. By tightening the screw, the lever presses onto both sides of the sample plate, forcing it down.
An improved thermal contact to the cooling surface is achieved and the temperature difference between the sample and the receiver is only about 2 Kelvin.
Loading/unloading of the sample and operation of the locking screw requires a WMG40 dual shaft wobblestick with PGWMS(OM) pincer for flag style plates. The use of a WM40 single shaft wobblestick with GRABSHOM sample grabber is not recommended.

PBN Heater Assembly with Receiver for Flag Style Plates
HSOMPBN50
A 50W pyrolitic boron nitride heater in combination with a molybdenum receiver for flag style plates provides a reliable solution for sample annealing. A K-type thermocouple is mounted on the sample receiver.
HSOMPBN50 heaters can be implemented in fully configured heating stages including flange assembly with electrical feedthroughs. The HSOMPBN50 is also used in BOOMERAX manipulators and can be easily adapted to practically any commercially available XYZ manipulator.
Receiver for Flag Style Sample Plates with integrated PBN Heater
- Power: 100W (24V, 4.2A ~1000°C)
- Maximum temperature approx. 1000°C
- Thermocouple: Type K (chromel/alumel)
