attoCPS II
ultra stable cryogenic probe station
:.........................................................................................

In comparison with the attoCPS I where the sample is fixed, the attoCPS II offers the possibility to move the sample in addition to up to four xyz tip manipulators. The sample can be positioned in x,y and z direction as well as rotated by 360°. This setup is particularly useful for multiple device testing with identical contact pad spacing. The probes are adjusted in the right pattern once, and subsequently the sample can be moved from one device to the next allowing time efficient multiple device testing within one cooling cycle.
Optical inspection of the sample / probes is provided via a CCD camera and sample illumination via IR-LED.
