The following is a timeline of low-temperature technology and cryogenic technology (refrigeration down to close to absolute zero, i.e. –273.15 °C, −459.67 °F or 0 K). [1] It also lists important milestones in thermometry , thermodynamics , statistical physics and calorimetry , that were crucial in development of low temperature systems.
Cryogenic solutions are integral to advancements in quantum computing and scientific research. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The company offers cryogenic systems, including dilution refrigerators [ 3 ] and cryocoolers , which are essential for applications requiring ultra-low temperatures. [ 4 ]

A cryogenic processor is a device engineered to reduce the temperature of an object to cryogenic levels, typically around −300°F (−184.44°C), at a moderate rate in order to prevent thermal shock to the components being treated. The inception of commercial cryogenic processors dates back to the late 1960s, pioneered by Ed Busch. [1]
