Configurable components on the SideKick Cryostats
Explore the add-ons to our flagship cryostats. Option compatibility is subject to individual project requirements.

Cold Plate Size
Standard:
Ø200 mm
4 Interface ports
Larger option:
Ø250 mm
8 Interface Ports



Chamber Castles
Add additional height or working configurations to your sample chamber.
Multiple standard options available.

Windows
Take a look inside your sample chamber.
Multiple window sizes, materials, and coatings are available.

DC Interfaces
Interfaces available to pass low-frequency signals through the vacuum chamber walls.
Options: DB25, Micro D25, Micro D9, and Micro D100

RF Interfaces
High frequency signals may be passed via coaxial cables using SMA interfaces.
Options: 4x RF, 6x RF, and 20x RF

High Current Leads
Equip your cold plate with thermally lagged high-current lugs capable of powering a superconducting magnet.

Fiber Optic
Multiple fiber optic cables can be fed through the vacuum chamber walls via compression fittings.

Gas Tubes
Introduce a controlled gas to your sample chamber via a gas feedthrough.

Temperature Sensors
Mounted in multiple locations throughout the system, these sensors keep track of your experiments down to near-absolute zero.

Integrated Bakeout
Optional heating package that drastically improves vacuum quality and reduces the warmup time.

Low Vibration Insert
Improve the SideKick’s already legendary low-vibration performance with an added insert that removes any additional kinetic energy. Perfect for AFM applications.
