COOLING OF SQUID DEVICES BY MEANS OF LIQUID TRANSFER TECHNIQUES FOR REDUCED HELIUM CONSUMPTION AND ENHANCED TEMPERATURE STABILITY.

Author(s) : BYRD E. A., HANSEN R. G.

Summary

A DEVELOPMENTAL EFFORT HAS BEEN UNDERTAKEN BY NAVAL SURFACE WEAPONS CENTER TO UTILIZE A LIQUID HELIUM TRANSFER SYSTEM TO PERFORM COOLING OF SQUID DEVICES IN THE TEMPERATURE REGION OF 4.5 TO 16 KELVIN. VARIOUS TECHNIQUES HAVE BEEN EMPLOYED TO ENHANCE THE TEMPERATURE STABILITY OF THE INHERENT SYSTEM AS WELL AS TO PROVIDE INCREASED SYSTEM PORTABILITY AND FLEXIBILITY OF APPLICATION. THIS PAPER PRESENTS A CONCEPT OF UTILIZING STATE-OF-THE-ART CRYOGENIC SYSTEMS TO INTERFACE WITH DIVERSE TECHNICAL NEEDS IN THE AREA OF ELECTRO-OPTICS, SQUID DEVICES, AND SUPPORTING ELECTRONIC ACCESSORIES.
