Previous Day

Setup: DIB 1/3/4 → 3.2 MHz filters 1/2/3 → cable 1/2/3 → gender changer 1/3/4 → DCRC55(1)/33(2)/X(4)
overnight: took charge bias scan data.
During the data sequences, Tower temperature fell from about 26.4-26.5 mK to 25.6-25.7 mK. No indication of fridge heating / breakdown occurring at the higher biases (4 V, 5 V).
0915 Tower = 25.4 mK, Still = 0.060 mbar, G1/G2 = 161/148 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.70 K / 32 mbar. MB = 70.1%
0915 Lab = 23.2 C, Humidity = 41%
0920 Fill LN2 cold trap bath.
1336 Apply 0V QET bias settings
1343 Start 10 min series of 20Hz Randoms, Tower = 25.5±0.1 mK
1354 Apply 1 uW to mixing chamber
1405 Tower temp seems stable at 28.5±0.2 mK
1406 Start 10 min series of 20Hz Randoms, Tower = 28.7±0.1 mK
1419 Apply 2 uW to mixing chamber
1507 Tower temp seems to be flattening out to ~34mK but its taking a while
1508 Start 10 min series of 20Hz Randoms, Tower = 34.1±0.3 mK
1522 Apply 3 uW to mixing chamber
1543 Start 10 min series of 20Hz Randoms, Tower = 36.4±0.7 mK
1603 Apply 4 uW to mixing chamber
1617 Start 10 min series of 20Hz Randoms, Tower = 44.7±1.4 mK
1635 Turn off MC heater
1637 Fill LN2 cold trap
