Controlled cryogenic contact system

摘要

An apparatus for creating controlled temperature changes on a contact surface, comprises: a) a probe having a contact surface, which probe is suitable for creating fast temperature changes at the contact surface; b) temperature generation assembly, coupled to the probe, being capable of creating cryogenic and above 0 DEG C. temperatures at the contact surface of the probe; and c) processing assembly to control the temperature generation assembly according to predetermined operating conditions.
