Cell Chucks for Modular IV Equipment | Sciencetech Inc.

Cell Chucks

Sciencetech Cell Chucks

Cell chucks are used to hold a sample and connect a sample to electronics for current-voltage (IV) measurement, as well as offering sample temperature control and sample positioning options.

Sciencetech offers a wide range of cell holding options for various cell sizes and budgets. We offer low-cost un-cooled cell holders with probe stations, or cooled options using either thermoelectric or liquid cooling and heating.

All cell chucks have 4 binding posts to connect probe assemblies to measurement electronics. Not all products are shown on the website.

Sciencetech Probe Stations

Probe stations are used in conjunction with a cell chuck to provide electrical contact to the sample for current-voltage (IV) measurements.

Sciencetech cell chucks are designed to be used with our probe stations. All cell chucks can take measurements from the bottom of the test cell but we have a number of options for the for the top side probes as well.

Probe Station

Sciencetech Temperature Controllers

Sciencetech provides temperature controllers for all of our cooled cell chucks.

Temperature Controller

Sciencetech Vacuum Pumps

Sciencetech provides vacuum pumps for all Sciencetech cell chucks. All of Sciencetech's cell chucks are 'vacuum ready' which means you can simply plug in an adequate vacuum pump and have instant vacuum hold down capabilities.
