## Description

The University has secured UKRI funding to purchase a transport system that is capable of electrically measuring nano-scale devices as a function of temperature and magnetic field\. This system will consist of a closed-cycle refrigerator cryostat and a variable magnetic field platform\. The system will be housed in the Herschel-Annex building-based laboratory, which is currently being renovated\. The objectives of the equipment are summarized as follows: • To be able to measure devices non-stop from 5 K to 325 K under high vacuum \(< 1x10-6 mbar\) • To be able to apply external magnetic field through an electromagnet\. This double-tuned adjustable air gap system will be integrated on a rotating platform that will enable us applying direction-dependent magnetic field\. The scope of this contract is for the supply, delivery and help in installation of the equipment as detailed in the ITT to the University, with after-sales support and 12 months warranty and maintenance\. Expressions of interest in this opportunity can be made by registering via the University's eTendering portal at: https://procontract\.due-north\.com/Advert?advertId=0dc3dfb3-7256-eb11-8106-005056b64545 The contract reference is NU/1626\.
