  1. An Electronic Primary Thermometer Based on Thermal Shot Noise Lafe Spietz, K.W. Lehnert, Irfan Siddiqi, R.J. Schoelkopf Department Of Applied Physics, Yale University Thanks to: Michel Devoret and Dan Prober

  2. Introduction • Thermal-shot noise in tunnel junctions: a voltage-dependent combination of Johnson noise and shot noise • Relates T and V using only e and kB • Demonstration of functional form for tunnel junction T=800 mK to >10 K

  3. Fundamental Noise Sources Johnson-Nyquist Noise • Frequency-independent • Temperature-dependent • Used for thermometry Shot Noise • Frequency-independent • Temperature independent

  4. Conduction in Tunnel Junctions M I M Difference gives current: Assume: Tunneling amplitudes and D.O.S. independent of Energy

  5. Thermal-Shot Noise of a Tunnel Junction* Sum gives noise: *D. Rogovin and D.J. Scalpino, Ann Phys. 86,1 (1974)

  6. Thermal-Shot Noise of a Tunnel Junction 2eI Shot Noise Transition Region eV~kBT 4kBT Johnson Noise R

  7. Tunnel Junction: Dolan Bridge Fabrication Dolan Resist Bridge(SEM) Al-AlOX-Al Junction(AFM)

  8. The Measurement For t= 1 second

  9. Self-Calibration Technique for Thermometry P = GB( SIAmp+SI(V,T) )

  10. Comparison of normalized data to functional form over wide range Normalized Data

  11. Merits Vs. Complications *R. J. Schoelkopf et al., Phys Rev. Lett. 80, 2437 (1998)

  12. Summary • New Tunnel Junction Thermometer based on voltage and temperature dependent noise of a tunnel junction (thermal-shot noise.) • Fast, accurate thermometer • works over a wide temperature range • Relates T to V using only e and kb implications for metrology
