Cryocoolers are ultracold refrigeration units used in surgery and drug development, semiconductor fabrication, and spacecraft. They can be tubes, pumps, tabletop sizes, or larger refrigerator systems.

A new cryogenic refrigerator has been demonstrated at NIST that operates at twice the usual frequency, achieving a long-sought combination of small size, rapid cooling, low temperatures and high ...

(Phys.org)—For many electronic devices, colder is better. At low temperatures, electronic devices such as sensors and detectors operate with a higher efficiency and better overall performance than ...

To maximize a satellite sensor’s sensitivity, it must be chilled using cryogenic refrigerators known as cryocoolers. NASA’s Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2), launched in July 2014, used a ...
