Purchase of a Closed-Cycle Cryostat and Dedicated Vacuum Pump for Departmental Multi-User Research Instrumentation

该奖项由化学研究仪器和设施 （CRIF）计划将协助大学化学系 南达科他州获得一个空气冷却的封闭循环低温恒温器和一个 专用机械真空泵。 四名教师将使用 用于光谱学和无机物研究项目的低温恒温器 光化学。低温恒温器可以提供研究 温度对各种光物理和光化学过程的影响。 的 该设备的易于操作也使其特别适合于 供从事研究的本科生使用。

This award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities (CRIF) Program will assist the Department of Chemistry at the University of South Dakota to acquire an air-cooled closed-cycle cryostat and a dedicated mechanical vacuum pump. Four faculty members will use the cryostat for research projects in optical spectroscopy and inorganic photochemistry. A cryostat can provide the means for studying the effects of temperature on various photophysical and photochemical processes. The ease of operation of the equipment also makes it particularly suitable for use by undergraduates involved in research.
