One of the major challenges in performing SQUID-detected Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy (MRFM) at milliKelvin temperatures is the crosstalk between the radiofrequency (RF) pulses used for the spin manipulation and the SQUID-based…
Low-temperature scanning probe microscopes (SPMs) are critical for the study of quantum materials and quantum information science. Due to the rising costs of helium, cryogen-free cryostats have become increasingly desirable. However, they…
