Features
The Zurich Instruments VHFLI Lock-in Amplifier is a digital, multipurpose measurement instrument that covers the frequency range from DC to 50 MHz (200 MHz with the VHF-F200M option).
Designed with best-in-class analog performance, it builds on the proven functionality of earlier instrument generations that pioneered integrated feedback loops, multi-frequency operation, arbitrary waveform generation, and sideband analysis.
With the VHFLI Lock-in Amplifier, you'll be able to:
View your signal from multiple perspectives by running Scope, Sweeper, Spectrum Analyzer, and more – simultaneously.
Orchestrate your measurement sequences by coordinating pulses, triggers, measurements, and controllers with the LabOne Timeline Module.
Set up precise multichannel current and voltage measurements quickly, with an ultra-low noise floor.
Capture fast signal dynamics thanks to short time constants and increase data throughput.
Work efficiently with the LabOne GUI and APIs, featuring user-friendly operation and lab-ready workflows.
Maximize signal integrity using differential inputs.
Perform arithmetic operations on signals with the Arithmetic Unit.
Benefit from industry-leading capabilities at a competitive price point.
Applications
The VHFLI Lock-in Amplifier’s low input noise, wide analysis bandwidth, and short low-pass filter time constant make it the ideal measurement tool for the most demanding signal analysis applications.
Failure analysis: laser voltage probing and imaging
Materials science: carrier mobility, carrier density, Hall effect
Scanning probe microscopy: AFM, STM, MFM
Powered by LabOne ®
The VHFLI Lock-in Amplifier includes the LabOne® control software that makes setting it up easy and convenient, thanks to its graphical user interface. It also provides firm control over the entire measurement toolset that comprises the lock-ins, a dual-channel oscilloscope with FFT, a parametric sweeper, a spectrum analyzer, and much more. Additionally, all the functionality and data acquisition can be accessed through the major programming languages for ease of integration: LabVIEWTM, MATLAB®, C, .NET and Python are supported.
