We present a parallel network of 16 demagnetization refrigerators mounted on a cryofree dilution refrigerator aimed to cool nanoelectronic devices to sub-millikelvin temperatures. To measure the refrigerator temperature, the thermal motion…
It is shown that with increasing magnitude of current (I), resistivity of Sm0.6Sr0.4MnO3 transforms from a smooth to a discontinuous insulator-metal transition which is also accompanied by an abrupt decrease in temperature of the sample. We…
We have developed and tested a zinc superconducting heat switch suitable for magnetic refrigeration and calorimetric experiments at sub-millikevin (sub-mK) temperatures. The specific application here is an adiabatic demagnetization…
Temperature below 100 microKelvin is achieved in a customized cryogen-free dilution refrigerator with a copper-nuclear demagnetization stage. The lowest temperature of conduction electrons of the demagnetization stage is below 100…
A design and implementation of "in-cell" magnetic refrigeration to achieve sub-10 mK temperatures T in cryogen-free dilution refrigerators is presented. The ultra low temperatures below 5 mK are attained in finite magnetic fields B up to 1…
We show that temperature of a current (I = 20 mA) carrying manganite (Nd0.5Ca0.5Mn0.93Ni0.07O3) in presence of a magnetic field (H) decreases abruptly as much as deltaT = 45 K (7 K) accompanied by a step like decrease in magnetoresistance…
We study current-driven magnetization switching in nanofabricated Ni84Fe16/Cu/Ni84Fe16 trilayers at 295 K and 4.2 K. The shape of the hysteretic switching diagram at low magnetic field changes from 295 K to 4.2 K. The reversible behavior at…
A magnetic heat pump apparatus consisting of a solid magnetic refrigerant, gadolinium, and a liquid regenerator column of ethanol and water has been tested. Utilizing a 7T field, it produced a maximum temperature span of 80 K, and in…
Highly coherent mechanical resonators are invaluable to ultrasensitive detection techniques by enabling detection of small forces. Studying mechanical resonators in a thermal equilibrium state at millikelvin temperatures provides a…
We propose a solid state refrigeration technique based on repeated adiabatic magnetization/demagnetization cycles of a superconductor which acts as the working substance. The gradual cooling down of a substrate (normal metal) in contact…
We have successfully developed and tested a compact shielded superconducting (SSC) magnet with a FeCoV magnetic shield. This was developed for the PrNi$_5$ based nuclear demagnetization refrigerator which can keep temperatures below 1 mK…
We present the development of a two-stage PrNi$_5$ continuous demagnetization refrigerator at the Institut N\'{e}el/CNRS and numerical simulations of its performance. The thermal model used in the simulations is discussed in detail…
We present the design and construction of a SQUID-based magnetometer for operation down to temperatures T = 10 mK, while retaining the compatibility with the sample holders typically used in commercial SQUID magnetometers. The system is…
We present a novel cooling method that uses the phase separation and evaporative cooling of 3He to reach and continuously maintain sub-kelvin temperatures. While less complex than a dilution refrigerator, the system performs similarly to a…
Fragile quantum effects such as single electron charging in quantum dots or macroscopic coherent tunneling in superconducting junctions are the basis of modern quantum technologies. These phenomena can only be observed in devices where the…
We demonstrate that magnetic multilayer nanopillars can be efficiently protected from oxidation by coating with silicon. Both the protected and the oxidized nanopillars exhibit an increase of reversal current at cryogenic temperatures.…
Cold atoms experiments employ magnetic fields, commonly generated by coils, as an essential tool to control and manipulate atomic samples. In these experiments, it is often necessary to rapidly switch the magnetic field between two values.…
