Type of article: Article

Summary

THE AUTHOR HAS DESIGNED A HELIUM 3 CRYOSTAT WHICH CAN BE INSERTED INTO A STORAGE DEWAR. IT REQUIRES NO EXTERNAL GAS-HANDLING SYSTEM AND HAS THE ADVANTAGES OF EXTREMELY LOW (AND RECOVERABLE) HELIUM CONSUMPTION, FAST COOLDOWN AND WARM-UP TIMES, EXCELLENT TEMPERATURE RANGE AND STABILITY, AND LOW VIBRATIONAL AND ELECTRICAL NOISE. DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE CRYOSTAT ARE PRESENTED, AND OPERATION AND PERFORMANCE ARE DISCUSSED. TO DEMONSTRATE PERFORMANCE OF THE CRYOSTAT, THE AUTHOR PRESENTS THERMAL BOUNDARY RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS BETWEEN 0.4 AND 170 K FOR A SOLID-SOLID INTERFACE.
