Determining the temperature of a millikelvin scanning tunnelling microscope junction
Abstract Cooling the junction of a scanning tunneling microscope to millikelvin temperatures is fundamental for high-resolution scanning tunneling spectroscopy. However, accurately determining the junction temperature has proven elusive, due to the microscopic dimension of the junction and its conti...
