Description

We present the design and testing of a cryostat to be used with induced junction photodiodes of the Predictable Quantum Efficient Detector (PQED). Long-term reflectance measurements indicate that possible ice growth on the photodiodes at the temperature of liquid nitrogen (LN) is significantly reduced from earlier PQED cryostat designs.
