TSDC Sample Cell

The sample cell for measurements of the Thermally Stimulated Depolarisation Current (TSDC) is designed for TSDC measurements of solid samples. In order to avoid piezoelectric effects, there is very little pressure applied to the sample when it is mounted between the two electrodes. Both electrodes are very well isolated from the sample holder and top flange.
Electrical connections are provided through various sockets located in the cell top flange. These include- a Safe High Voltage (SHV) connector for the DC polarization voltage
- a Triax connector for the electrometer input current signal
- a connector for the interlock.
- a ground connector
