Noise measurement system at electron temperature down to 20 mK with combinations of the low pass filters.
We developed a quantum noise measurement system in a dilution refrigerator by using three kinds of cryogenic low pass filters. One of them is a commercial low pass filter inserted into the noise measurement lines instead of the conventional powder filter, which assures well-defined circuit parameters necessary for the noise measurement at a finite frequency. We checked that this filter gives sufficiently large attenuation up to 20 GHz at room temperature, 77 and 4.2 K. The electron temperature of the mesoscopic device placed in the present system was confirmed to be down to around 20 mK by measuring the thermal noise of the device.
