I. Product Overview

The Congtical Technology Pi’an‑grade Current‑4‑Probe Temperature‑Controlled Stage is a product specifically designed for variable‑temperature electrical measurements in materials research. It enables characterization of materials during both heating and cooling cycles, allowing measurement of temperature‑dependent resistance and the evolution of electrical properties with temperature.

This model achieves high-precision XYZ‑axis displacement by adjusting the external probe arm to reposition the internal probe. Additionally, it features 24 internal electrode leads, facilitating connection to a variety of source meters for conducting diverse electrical measurements, such as dielectric constant, ferroelectric constant, I‑V characteristics, and temperature‑dependent resistance.
