Abstract
A refrigeration system was designed and constructed for realizing a liquid-He-free programmable Josephson voltage standard. The system is equipped with a two-stage Gifford-McMahon cooler, a heat radiation shield, a magnetic field shield, and semi-rigid coaxial cables to supply microwave power to a chip. The performance of the system was examined using a NbN-based 8-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) chip designed as a 1 V programmable voltage standard. When operated at 8.5 K on the cryocooler, constant-voltage steps with amplitudes greater than 1 mA were observed for every segment of junction arrays on the chip.Citation
