Description
This book presents a highly integrated, step-by-step approach to the design and construction of low-temperature measurement apparatus.
It is effectively two books in one: A textbook on cryostat design techniques and an appendix data handbook that provides materials-property data for carrying out that design.
The main text encompasses a wide range of information, written for specialists, without leaving beginning students behind.
After summarizing cooling methods, Part I provides core information in an accessible style on techniques for cryostat design and fabrication - including heat-transfer design, selection of materials, construction, wiring, and thermometry, accompanied by many graphs, data, and clear examples.
Part II gives a practical user's perspective of sample mounting techniques and contact technology.
Part III applies the information from Parts I and II to the measurement and analysis of superconductor critical currents, including in-depth measurement techniques and the latest developments in data analysis and scaling theory.
The appendix is a ready reference handbook for cryostat design, encompassing seventy tables compiled from the contributions of experts and over fifty years of literature.
