We show that a cryogenic amplifier composed of a homemade GaAs high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) is suitable for current-noise measurements in a mesoscopic device at dilution-refrigerator temperatures. The lower noise characteristics…
We report the discovery of a very large thermoelectric power over -400 microV K-1 in the whisker crystals of a one-dimensional telluride Ta4SiTe4, while maintaining a low electrical resistivity of rho = 2 mohm cm, yielding a very large…
We present high resolution thermal expansion measurement data obtained with high relative sensitivity of $\Delta$L$/$L = 10$^{-9}$ and accuracy of $\pm$2$\%$ using closed cycle refrigerators employing two different dilatometers. The data…
Helium (He) retention in tungsten (W) is a concern in fusion reactors since it could be detrimental to plasma facing components performance and influence the fusion fuel balance. He being not soluble in W, it tends to agglomerate on…
We have designed and constructed a compact rotary substrate heater for the temperature range from 25 $^\circ$C to 700 $^\circ$C. The heater can be implemented in any deposition system where crystalline samples are needed. Its main function…
We study the elasticity of perfect 4He at zero-temperature using the diffusion Monte Carlo method and a realistic semi-empirical pairwise potential to describe the He-He interactions. Specifically, we calculate the value of the elastic…
We show that there can exist two liquid states in distinguishable helium-4 ($^4$He) obeying Boltzmann statistics by path integral centroid molecular dynamics (CMD) simulations. This is an indication of quantum liquid polyamorphism induced…
Thermoacoustic Refrigerators use acoustic power for generating cold temperatures. Development of refrigerators based on the thermoacoustic technology is a novel solution to the present day need of cooling, without causing environmental…
The nature of the pseudogap phase of cuprate high-temperature superconductors is a major unsolved problem in condensed matter physics. We studied the commencement of the pseudogap state at temperature T* using three different techniques…
We have considered the dislocation network model for the supersolid state in He-4 crystals. In difference with uniform 2D and 3D systems, the temperature of superfluid transition T_c in the network is much smaller than the degeneracy…
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…
We have produced a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) on an atom chip using only superconducting wires in a cryogenic environment. We observe the onset of condensation for 10^4 atoms at a temperature of 100 nK. This result opens the way for…
A torsional oscillator study of solid para-hydrogen has been carried out down to 20 mK in search for evidence of superfluidity. This work was inspired by the observation of the supersolid phase in solid He-4. We found evidence of a possible…
The shear modulus of solid $^4$He exhibits an anomalous change of order 10%[1, 2] at low temperatures that is qualitatively similar to the much smaller frequency change in torsional oscillator experiments. We propose that in solid $^4$He…
We demonstrate the direct loading of a D$_2$ MOT of potassium-39 atoms from a cryogenic buffer gas beam source. We load $10^8$ atoms in a 10 ms pulse, with no degradation in performance up to a 10 Hz repetition rate. Observed densities…
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…
Recently for the first time a stable compound of He and Na (Na2He) is predicted at high pressure. We explore the pressure dependent elastic, mechanical and thermodynamic properties of this newly discovered Na2He by using ab initio…
The trapped-ion quantum charge-coupled device (QCCD) architecture is a leading candidate for advanced quantum information processing. In current QCCD implementations, imperfect ion transport and anomalous heating can excite ion motion…
Superconductivity and topological quantum states are two frontier fields of research in modern condensed matter physics. The realization of superconductivity in topological materials is highly desired, however, superconductivity in such…
A scaled-up quantum computer will require a highly efficient control interface that autonomously manipulates and reads out large numbers of qubits, which for solid-state implementations are usually held at millikelvin (mK) temperatures.…
