This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. This subproject (phase 5) is the most challenging one, poised to further develop the multi-sample probe in order to enable high-speed sample switching, which we refer to as processing them in a "round-robin" fashion. For this development we have conceptual solutions for both standard (50-60K) and low (8-20K) temperature ranges. The second temperature range is also attractive for integrating the probe with a cryogenic receiver. In the case of successful implementation of such type of a probe we shall integrate it with a cryogenic receiver. The development of the multi-sample probe is the most challenging aspect of the project requiring substantial research, including but not limited to the development of a "set-on" or else multi-channel microwave receiver, control and DSP software, cryogenic receiver protector, and other key parts. The technology involved encompasses considerable high-precision machining, hard material grinding and polishing to high accuracy, fabricating microwave assemblies and vacuum parts, and electronic circuits. The successful completion requires access to suitable engineering resources, which we have in part at ACERT (in particular Boris Naumov), and we will outsource to U.S. companies, as needed. Overall, the project though technically very challenging, entails achievable goals at reasonable cost.

该子项目是利用资源的众多研究子项目之一 由 NIH/NCRR 资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 并且子项目的首席研究员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其他 NIH 来源。 子项目可能列出的总成本 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， NCRR 赠款不直接向子项目或子项目工作人员提供资金。 该子项目（第 5 阶段）是最具挑战性的一个，准备进一步开发多样本探针，以实现高速样本切换，我们称之为以“循环”方式处理它们。对于这一开发，我们拥有适用于标准 (50-60K) 和低温 (8-20K) 温度范围的概念解决方案。第二温度范围对于将探头与低温接收器集成也很有吸引力。 在成功实施此类探头的情况下，我们将其与低温接收器集成。多样品探头的开发是该项目中最具挑战性的方面，需要进行大量研究，包括但不限于开发“设置”或多通道微波接收器、控制和 DSP 软件、低温接收器保护器等关键部件。所涉及的技术包括相当高的高精度加工、硬质材料高精度研磨和抛光、微波组件和真空零件以及电子电路的制造。成功完成需要获得合适的工程资源，我们在 ACERT 拥有部分资源（特别是 Boris Naumov），并且我们将根据需要外包给美国公司。总体而言，该项目虽然在技术上非常具有挑战性，但需要以合理的成本实现目标。
