Stern-Gerlach apparatus

The Stern–Gerlach experiment demonstrates that the spatial orientation of angular momentum is quantized. More than 100 years have passed since the experiment was first carried out by Stern and Gerlach. Today’s technical possibilities make it possible to perform this experiment using an apparatus that is both compact and easy to operate.
Key Features
- Retention of the original measuring principle, implemented using state-of-the-art technology.
- Greatly simplified operation and handling.
- Clearly arranged setup.
- Easy adjustment.
- Illustrative results that are measurable and calculable.
- Highly sensitive detector.
- Potassium is particularly suitable, as it evaporates at low temperatures (< 200 °C) and deposits can be easily removed.
- The experiment is typically carried out at 10⁻⁶ mbar, allowing a significantly larger atomic beam and eliminating alignment problems associated with the historical experiment.
- Standardized flanges allow the apparatus to be opened and closed at several positions for experimentation as well as for cleaning and maintenance.
