Lake Shore Cryotronics, a CSA Corporate Sustaining Member, has introduced updated specifications for its Model CRX-VF cryogenic probe station, which features increased maximum magnetic field, improved magnetic field at elevated sample temperatures and improved vacuum performance.

Scientists from the University of Tübingen, Germany, working with colleagues from Tel Aviv University and the University of Kiel, Germany, have proposed [1] and experimentally demonstrated [2] a new type of superconducting element – named the phi-Josephson (?-Josephson) junction. Implemented in cryogenic devices, this element will make superconducting electronic circuits...
