Osiris sample environment
OSIRIS accepts a wide range of sample environments.
Two different Sample geometries can be used:
- Flat - aluminium alloy cans of 40mm x 40mm for powders, liquids or films, with varying thicknesses (0.1, 0.2, 0.25, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 1, 2 mm)
- Annular - aluminium alloy cans 50mm tall for powders, liquids or films, with varying thicknesses (0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 mm)
- Annular with gas loading capabilities (please ask your local contact)
These most commonly used Sample Environment are given below. For further details please either ask your local contact or refer to the ISIS Sample Environment webpage.
| Bore diameter (mm) | Temperature range | |
| Pulse-tube Top-Loader | 100 | 4K to 673K |
| Orange and Blue Cryostats, with V or Al tails | 50 and 100 | 1.5K to 330K |
| Dilution refrigerator | 50 | down to 50mK |
