研究目的
To develop a cryostat for beam pattern measurements in the sub-mm at large angles up to θ = 37.8?, enabling the operation of microwave kinetic inductance detectors (MKIDs) below 300 mK.
研究成果
The cryostat designed for beam pattern measurements at large angles up to θ = 37.8? performs excellently, reaching a base temperature of 265 mK with a hold time longer than 32 h. The design effectively minimizes thermal loading on the cold stage and utilizes a sophisticated filter stack to block out-of-band radiation.
研究不足
The model predicts a load on the cold stage of 4.4 μW, which is close to the measured value of 6 μW, indicating some discrepancy. The accuracy of the thermal radiation model and the effects of filter heating are areas for potential optimization.
