MAxes
TM
systems provide variable magnetic field on the three principal axes and are particularly
useful for orientation studies on a variety of samples. The system is comprised of a 2 or 3-axis
superconducting magnet, low helium consumption current leads, magnet dewar and other associated
electronics. Typical specifications include magnetic fields up to 9T for the principal
vertical axis, 2.0/3.0 inch vertical clear bore and up to 3T rotating vector using any
combination of x, y and z-axis magnets. It is possible to use the magnet system with existing
sample inserts or AMI can provide a variable temperature insert which operates from 1.5K to
300K. Our users have also used such systems with 3rd party He3 systems and dilution
refrigerators.
The MAxes
TM
system provides a unique way to rotate the magnetic field vector on the three principal axes
and this has proved useful in performing anisotropic studies on a variety of materials.
MAxes
TM
systems have also been very useful in advancing research in the areas of spin based physics.
