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…
A scanning force microscope was implemented operating at temperatures below 4.2K and in magnetic fields up to 8T. Piezoelectric quartz tuning forks were employed for non optical tip-sample distance control in the dynamic operation mode.…
A device for UHV cleavage of crystal specimens for the use with STM has been suggested and developed. We present a device suitable for the precise cleavage of semiconductors. The device needs only small space and can be easily mounted in a…
We report on the frozen-spin polarized hydrogen--deuteride (HD) targets for photoproduction experiments at SPring-8/LEPS. Pure HD gas with a small amount of ortho-H2 (~0.1%) was liquefied and solidified by liquid helium. The temperature of…
We present a scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) technique to simultaneously measure the topography, the local tunnel barrier height (dI/dz) and the differential conductivity (dI/dV). We modulate the voltage and tip piezo with small…
Tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) combines inelastic light scattering well below the diffraction limit down to the nanometer range and scanning probe microscopy and, possibly, spectroscopy. In this way, topographic and spectroscopic as…
We demonstrate successful "dry" refrigeration of quantum fluids down to $T=0.16$\,mK by using copper nuclear demagnetization stage that is pre-cooled by a pulse-tube-based dilution refrigerator. This type of refrigeration delivers a…
The results of micro-structural and detailed magnetization studies are reported here for our recently published TbSr2Cu2.7Mo0.3O7+d superconductor with a transition temperature (Tc) at as high as 80 K [1]. From XRD and EDX the sample was…
A system providing an optical frequency with an instability comparable to that of a hydrogen maser is presented. It consists of a $5$ $\mathrm{cm}$ long, vertically oriented silicon optical resonator operated at temperatures between $1.5$…
Next-generation cryogenic transmission electron microscopes (TEM) aim to achieve high-resolution imaging at ultracold sample temperatures (< 90 K) and over extended hold times. Lower temperatures enable atomic-scale characterization with…
We present a combined scanning force and tunneling microscope working in a dilution refrigerator that is optimized for the study of individual electronic nano-devices. This apparatus is equipped with commercial piezo-electric positioners…
We present a viewport for use in Ultra-high vacuum (UHV) based upon the preflattened solder seal design presented in earlier work, Cox et al. Rev. Sci. Inst. 74, 3185 (2003). The design features significant modifications to improve long…
We present a 3He / 4He dilution refrigerator designed for cooling astronomical mm-wave telescope receivers to around 100 mK. Used in combination with a Gifford-McMahon closed-cycle refrigerator, 4He and 3He sorption-pumped refrigerators,…
Tunneling spectroscopy played a central role in the experimental verification of the microscopic theory of superconductivity in the classical superconductors. Initial attempts to apply the same approach to high-temperature superconductors…
Non-volatile memory (NVM) devices that reliably operate at temperatures above 300 $^\circ$C are currently non-existent and remains a critically unmet challenge in the development of high-temperature (T) resilient electronics, necessary for…
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…
Hybrid quantum systems have the potential of mitigating current challenges in developing a scalable quantum computer. Of particular interest is the hybridization between atomic and superconducting qubits. We demonstrate a novel experimental…
A major goal of ultracold atomic physics is quantum simulation of spin Hamiltonians in optical lattices. Progress towards this goal requires the attainment of extremely low temperatures. Here we demonstrate a new cooling method which…
We have developed a nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer with a series tuned input circuit for measurements on samples at millikelvin temperatures based on an integrated two-stage superconducting quantum interference device current…
We describe a first principles method to calculate scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) images, and compare the results to well-characterized experiments combining STM with atomic force microscopy (AFM). The theory is based on density…
