Laboratory LaTEST1 - Electrical Transport, Tunnel & Point-Contact Spectroscopy

The lab is dedicated to the electric and electronic characterization of various materials, especially superconductors and 2D materials. The equipment allows measurements of resistance, Hall effect, superconducting critical field and critical current, ac susceptibility, tunnel and point-contact spectroscopy as a function of temperature, down to 0.3 K, and in magnetic fields up to 9 T.
