Cryogen-Free Superconducting and Hybrid Magnets

The first practical cryogen-free superconducting magnets using a GM-cryocooler and high temperature superconducting current leads have been demonstrated successfully at the High Field Laboratory for Superconducting Materials (HFLSM). Easy-to-operate cryogen-free 10–15 T superconducting magnets have been used to provide access for new research areas in fields of magneto-science. The HFLSM has started construction projects for new high field cryogen-free superconducting and hybrid magnets.
