(DURIP) ACQUISITION OF HELIUM 3 UPGRADE FOR PHYSICAL PROPERTY MEASUREMENT SYSTEM

Abstract

The modern information technology is built on the discovery and optimization of electronic and magnetic materials. Likewise, breakthroughs of the next generation quantum technology will likely stem from the research of new quantum phases of matter. These quantum phases often exhibit extraordinary properties only at extremely low temperatures, such as topological superconductivity and anomalous metal phase. The requested Helium 3 system will upgrade the existing Physical Property Measurement System and extending the low temperature limit of the cryostat to 0.4K. It will also be integrated with the specific heat, magnetization and electrical measurements, with rotation in magnetic fields up to 14T and in-situ strain tuning capability. With these experimental apparatus and unique sample environment, we will explore strain control topological superconductivity, thermodynamic measurements of anomalous metal phase, and emergent phenomena at the superconductor/magnetic interface. The success of this proposal will significantly enhance the DOD funded research at UW on quantum materials and quantum technology.
