Abstract
An optical imaging system for milliKelvin temperatures has been develo ped based on a regular B/W surveillance camera (25 frames/s), with its CCD sensor inside the 4-K vacuum can of our nuclear demagnetization c ryostat. The heat leak to the nuclear stage, caused by the operation o f the video camera, was reduced below 1 nW by careful rf shielding. Th e construction of the system and its limits of operation are discussed .
