Four Point Probe

The custom system core is a small vacuum chamber equipped with rotative pump and (optionally) turbo pumps. The four point probe has been fabricated to measure sheet resistance and resistivity of samples in a temperature range up to 400° C. Current and voltage are applied and measured by means of Keithley 8220 current source and 6543 nanovoltmeter. Measurements can be performed in a constant gas flux.
