Description:
The system consists of a LTS350 stage, a T95-LinkPad System Controller and a LNP95 liquid nitrogen cooling pump.
The LTS350 is an easy to use and very versatile heating and freezing stage. The stage consists of a large area temperature controlled element with a sensor embedded close to the surface for accurate temperature measurements in the range of < -196°C to 350°C (when used with LNP95 cooling pump). The sample is easily mounted on a standard microscope slide in direct contact with the heating element and can be manipulated in both X and Y directions. The sample chamber is gas tight and has valves to allow atmospheric composition control.
Specifications:
