Introduction

In our Spintronics Lab, when we want to analyze a sample, conductivity or resistivity as a electrical property is almost always necessary. Normally, we use a Voltmeter or standard four probes method to take a measurement. However, surface preparation and contamination have great effects on the electrical properties of the samples. Thus, a contactless technic would be a better way to carry out the conductivity measurement. When we were doing the ac magnetic susceptibility measurement, we learn from literature that there is connection between the electrical conductivity and the ac magnetic susceptibility. We would like to build the set up from the literature, take a measurement on the conductivity of our metal sample and compare it with the result from standard four probes measurement.
