A compact low cost cooling stage for lab based X-Ray micro-CT setups

Abstract:A temperature controlled sample stage, which can both heat up, and cool down a sample while it is subjected to a mu CT scan has been developed. The stage was designed to reach temperatures up to 50 degrees C and down to -20 degrees C and has been used in several applications with a varying degree of dynamism, going from immobilizing samples by freezing them to studying fully dynamically evolving temperature dependent processes.
