Oxford Instruments installs its 100th Triton refrigerator

Oxford Instruments NanoScience has successfully installed its 100th Triton Cryogen-free dilution refrigerator at the Quantum Nanoelectronics Group from the Catalan Institute of Nanotechnology (ICN), in Barcelona, where it will be used to study the electrical and mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes and graphene. The Triton allows cooling to less than 10 mK without the need for liquid Helium and can be integrated with superconducting magnets.

Prof Adrian Bachtold, Principal Investigator of the Quantum Nano-Electronic Group and scientific staff at the Catalan Institute of Nanotechnology in Barcelona, commented: “We are delighted to have received our new Cryofree dilution refrigerator and integrated magnet. The installation went perfectly and we are already in a position to perform our first experiments three months after placing our order. We are working on a project to take advantage of the unique properties of carbon nanotubes and graphene for the fabrication of nanoelectromechanical resonators. The new Triton will be used to study these resonators in the quantum limit.”
