We have built a variable temperature scanning probe microscope (SPM) that covers 4.6 K - 180 K and up to 7 Tesla whose SPM head fits in a 52 mm bore magnet. It features a temperature-controlled sample stage thermally well isolated from the…
Many thermal measurements in high magnetic fields require thermometers that are sensitive over a wide temperature range, are low mass, have a rapid thermal response, and have a minimal, easily correctable magnetoresistance. Here we report…
Magnetic cooling based on the magnetocaloric effect is a promising solid-state refrigeration technology for a wide range of applications in different temperature ranges. Previous studies have mostly focused on near room temperature (300 K)…
Predictable circuit response is a critical prerequisite for accurate electronic measurements. We describe a powerful, yet straightforward, experimental method and analysis model that utilizes an affordable LCR meter in conjunction with an…
We develop and demonstrate a compact (less than $6$ mL) portable Fabry-P\'{e}rot optical reference cavity. A laser locked to the cavity is thermal noise limited at $2\times10^{-14}$ fractional frequency stability. Broadband feedback control…

We report measurements of the resistance of silicon MOSFETs as a function of temperature in high parallel magnetic fields where the 2D system of electrons has been shown to be fully spin-polarized. A magnetic field suppresses the metallic…

We present results from the first experimental demonstration of a tunable thin-shell axion haloscope. This novel geometry decouples the overall volume of the cavity-based resonator from its resonant frequency, thereby evading the steep…
Accurate knowledge of mechanical and thermal properties of structural materials used in MEMS is essential for optimum geometric and functional design. The extraction of precise physical properties is rather complicated due to the size…

Controlling the thermal expansion of materials is of great technological importance. Uncontrolled thermal expansion can lead to failure or irreversible destruction of structures and devices. In ordinary crystals, thermal expansion is…
A novel approach to calibrate the sensitivity of a differential thermometer, consisting of several thermocouples connected in series (thermopile), has been developed. The goal of this method is to increase the accuracy of small temperature…

Thermal transistor is an efficient heat control device which can act as a heat switch as well as a heat modulator. In this paper, we study systematically one-dimensional and two-dimensional thermal transistors. In particular, we show how to…
We calculate analytically properties of holographic superconductors in the probe limit. We analyze the range $1/2 < \Delta < 3$, where $\Delta$ is the dimension of the operator that condenses. We obtain the critical temperature in terms of…
