Primary tunnel junction thermometry
Jukka P. Pekola, Tommy Holmqvist, Matthias Meschke
We describe the concept and experimental demonstration of primary thermometry based on a four probe measurement of a single tunnel junction embedded within four arrays of junctions…
Electronic cooling of a submicron-sized metallic beam
J. T. Muhonen, A. O. Niskanen, M. Meschke +5
We demonstrate electronic cooling of a suspended AuPd island using superconductor-insulator-normal metal tunnel junctions. This was achieved by developing a simple fabrication meth…
Origin of Hysteresis in a Proximity Josephson Junction
Hervé Courtois, M. Meschke, J. T. Peltonen +1
We investigate hysteresis in the transport properties of Superconductor - Normal metal - Superconductor (S-N-S) junctions at low temperatures by measuring directly the electron tem…
Recombination limited energy relaxation in a BCS superconductor
A. V. Timofeev, C. Pascual Garcia, N. B. Kopnin +4
We study quasiparticle energy relaxation at sub-kelvin temperatures by injecting hot electrons into an aluminium island and measuring the energy flux from electrons into phonons bo…
Parity effect in Al and Nb single electron transistors in a tunable environment
A. M. Savin, M. Meschke, J. P. Pekola +4
Two different types of Cooper pair transistors, with Al and Nb islands, have been investigated in a tunable electromagnetic environment. The device with an Al island demonstrates g…
Heat Transistor: Demonstration of Gate-Controlled Electron Refrigeration
Olli-Pentti Saira, Matthias Meschke, Francesco Giazotto +3
We present experiments on a superconductor-normal metal electron refrigerator in a regime where single-electron charging effects are significant. The system functions as a heat tra…
