University of Southampton awarded a contract to Zurich Instruments AG for the provision of a single high performance lock-in amplifier (LIA) for the Electronics and Computer Science (ECS) department.

The LIA is an enabling technology used in measuring small signals from noise across various experimental setups, and the procurement addresses limitations in frequency response and bandwidth of existing equipment that were preventing new research fields from being exploited.

The contract value was £40,832.
