A miniaturized plastic dilution refrigerator.

Summary

The authors have built and tested a miniaturized dilution refrigerator, completely contained (still, heat exchanger and mixing chamber) inside a plastic (PVC) tube of 10-mm diameter and 170-mm length. With a 25-cm2 copper-nickel heat exchanger, it reached temperatures below 50 milliK, for circulation rates below 70 micromol/s. The cooling power at 100 milliK and 63 micromol/s was 45 microwatts. The experimental space could accommodate samples up to 6 mm in diameter.
