Highly Engaged Employees

Quantum Design, Inc. develops, manufactures, and markets automated temperature and magnetic field testing platforms for materials characterization. Its products include a physical property measurement system (PPMS) for a range of magnetic, thermal, and electrical measurements; a magnetic property measurement system (MPMS) that is a high-sensitivity... SQUID magnetometer for magnetic measurements; MPMS SQUID VSM that is a SQUID sensitivity combined with the vibrating sample magnetometer; portable and cryogen-free instruments that provide a suite of magnetic, thermal, and electrical measurements; and cryogen-free design solutions, which provide PPMS performance and measurements. The company also provides advanced technology liquefiers with helium recovery, storage, and purification systems to recover helium gas lost from normal boil off and helium transfers; scanning probe microscopes for the PPMS certified; high-performance and compact IR image furnaces; high pressure cell kits for the MPMS that allow sample insertion and removal without the need of an hydraulic press; and a line of DC SQUID sensors and electronics for custom applications. In addition, it offers sensitive and magnetic immunoassay systems for the detection of a range of biochemical analytes for use in medical, food safety, and environmental diagnostics; various scientific and industrial instrumentation solutions; and various technical support services. The company offers its automated materials characterization systems for research applications in the fields of physics, chemistry, materials science, nanotechnology, and biotechnology. It offers its products through its network of local direct offices around the world. The company was founded in 1982 and is based in San Diego, California.Read More
