I am currently having a bit of trouble on my design. If you have any ideas please let me know.
I have a crystal disc that is held horizontal above the chamber. It is a vacuum chamber, that is less than a foot in length.
[crystal] <--(force){probes}
I'm trying to have two probes contact the surface of the disc without using an epoxy. My current idea is to use spring loaded test probes that make proper contact. The problem is I don't have enough force to press down on the spring loaded probes. The crystal produces charge so I can not use a metal holder. Are there any companies that sell telfon holders? Does anyone know of a stand that is insulated and commonly used for test probes? Perhaps I should try a different route and use electrodes? Would electrodes make proper contact in a vacuum?
