Le laboratoire abrite deux réfrigérateurs à dilution et un système à Hélium-3 et un VTI, tous construits par Janis Research corporation. Il y a aussi un frigo BlueFors pour lequel un remaniement de l'espace du laboratoire est en cours. Les frigos sont reliés à une station de reliquéfaction de l'hélium de Quantum Design.

Cette plaque de ciment fait le lien entre la chambre de pompage et le monde extérieur. L'empreinte de main au milieu est celle de Cory. | |
 |
La chambre de pompage, comme son nom l'indique, contient plusieurs pompes. On y voit ici deux roots blowers et deux pompes pfeifer qui sont raccordées aux lignes de pompage. | |
 |
Plusieurs Alcatel 2008s sont aussi utilisés pour le pompage. | |
 |
Les transformateurs livrent un courant régulé et contrôlé aux appareils sensibles qui se trouvent dans le lab. | |

Rome wasn't built in a day: Here are some photos from the lab, taken during the slightly less than scientific construction phase. |
|
 |
It begins! ... with a thud. |
 |
Our esteemed group leader can be seen here making sure that the hole in the ground actually exists. |
 |
Two of the three pits in the lab prior to the concrete pour. |
 |
Before investigating such oddities as the Wigner Crystal or Quantum Nanofluidics, we must first examine something much more humble: dirt. |
 |
The ULT-SPM pit, in its nascent stage. |
 |
The corner where there now sits the ULT-SPM set up. Note the new walls and the two pits! |
 |
The corner above with the elegant ash wood structure clearly visible. The 8" PVC pipe can be seen on the floor, itching to be hoisted into position. |

Cory Dean, after carrying this slab of concrete back on his back from the civil engineering department. |
 |
The electricians working on our pump room power controls. |
 |
Robert, Richard, and John making sure the newly installed I-Beam isn't going anywhere. |
 |
John wondering if and how the other I-beam is going to fit in the ceiling. (NB: it did fit) |
 |
Five burly gentlemen getting ready to hoist the 300 lb lead-antinomy pipe, otherwise known as L'Gros Réflecteur, into place. |
 |
L'Gros Réflecteur in all its quiet glory. This subtle yet potent beast will help prevent any vibrations originating from the pump room from reaching the sensitive tip of the AFM. |

The other side of the lab which now houses the He-3 system. |
