By Lauren Biron Although dark matter makes up most of the mass in our universe, it has never been directly observed. To hunt for lighter dark matter and other rare phenomena, researchers must solve a puzzle in their supersensitive detectors: an unexpected number of low-energy events, called the “low-energy excess” …

An inverted tabletop dilution refrigerator that can achieve millikelvin temperatures has long been the holy grail for fast-turnaround quantum technology development. It is especially useful for fast and affordable quantum chip testing. In 2023, Quantum Delta NL awarded funding to companies Leiden Cryogenics and Orange Quantum Systems for the Quper …
B. Hansen and G. Tatkowski Pulse tube cryocoolers are integral to current dilution refrigerator (DR) technology, which are often referred to as “dry” DRs. In this application, the cryocoolers are used to cool the two highest temperature stages of the DRs to approximately 45 K (stage 1) and 3 K …
