STVP-100 Optical Cryostat
Overview
Optical continuous flow cryostats with three standard sizes available, although, as with all Janis systems, these systems can be customized to suit your experiment. Systems with a 1.5" sample space are in stock for fast delivery.

Standard Configuration
Designed for experiments requiring optical access to the sample, the Janis Research STVP-100 includes the following components:
- Optical vacuum shroud
- Optical radiation shield
- Four (4) quartz window sets
- Optical sample holder
- Temperature sensor
- Pressure relief valve
- Sample positioner with one (1) 10-pin and one (1) 8-pin electrical feedthrough
- 6' superinsulated cryogen transfer line
- Control heater
- System test
Typical Applications:
- Raman Spectroscopy
- UV, VlS, IR, FTIR
- Optoelectric Effect
- Photoluminescence
