Conductivity And Impedance Measurements

​

The ProboStat test fixture allows many ways to connect  to the sample.

Disk sample:

• 2-point impedance spectroscopy and conductivity measurements

• 2-point impedance spectroscopy and conductivity measurements with surface guard

• van der Pauw 4-point conductivity measurements

• Electrode impedance studies with ring reference electrode – symmetrical cells

     

Bar sample:

• 4-point conductivity measurements

• Seebeck coefficient measurements

• Combined Seebeck coefficient and 4-point conductivity measurements on bar sample

Van der Pauw

Van der Pauw measurements are suitable whenever you need to characterise a highly conducting material with a four point method and the sample is readily available as a thin slab.
