Hsiao FZ, Lin MC, Wang C, Lee DS, Chen JR, Hilbert B, et al. The liquid helium cryogenic system for the superconducting cavity in SRRC. In: Proc. Particle Accelerator Conference. Vol 2.; 2001. p. 1604–6.
Abstract: A 500 MHz superconducting cavity will replace the current copper cavity and begin to operate in the beginning of the year 2003. A liquid helium cryogenic system provides the cavity at 4.5 K a cooling capacity of 255 W without LN2 pre-cooling and a liquefaction rate of 110 liter/hour with LN2 pre-cooling. A safety factor of 1.5 is used to estimate the heat load from the superconducting cavity and the heat loss from the transfer lines. With the LN2 pre-cooling, this cooling system provides a cooling capacity of up to 450 W to cool down the additional superconducting Landau cavity. The capacity of the system can be tuned using a frequency driver installed at the compressor station. The pressure fluctuations of the dewar and of the suction line are kept to the same stability requirement that of the cavity cryostat to minimize the influence in cavity operation. A shutdown period for maintenance of more than 8000 hours for the cryogenic system is expected without interfering with the continuous operation of the superconducting cavity.

Abstract: The reflectivity of metallic mirrors in the millimeter wave region does not only depend on the material, but also on the structure and roughness of the surface. We have performed measurements of the reflectivity of various plane and grooved metallic and graphite samples at 140 GHz. The technique is based on the comparison of the quality factor of a 2-mirror reference resonator with the quality factor of a 3-mirror resonator which has identical dimensions and includes the mirror to be tested. After a brief presentation of the theory, the set-up is described and the reflection loss for various aluminium and copper mirrors as well as vacuum compatible materials for applications in thermonuclear fusion experiments are presented and discussed.

Abstract: A novel superconducting single-photon detector (SSPD), intrinsically capable of high quantum efficiency (up to 20%) over a wide spectral range (ultraviolet to infrared), with low dark counts (<1 cps), and fast (<40 ps) timing resolution, is described. This SSPD has been used to perform timing measurements on complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor integrated circuits (ICs) by detecting the infrared light emission from switching transistors. Measurements performed from the backside of a 0.13 μm geometry flip–chip IC are presented. Other potential applications for this detector are in telecommunications, quantum cryptography, biofluorescence, and chemical kinetics.
