Zero Point Cryogenics

Zero Point Cryogenics (ZPC) is a Canadian manufacturer of dilution refrigerators and cryogenic equipment, founded in 2017 by Dr. John P. Davis and built on decades of low-temperature physics research. The company describes itself as a team of scientists and researchers producing premium, customizable cryostats made in North America, designed for the demanding needs of the quantum and low-temperature research industries. Its stated vision is to revolutionize cryogenic technology and help partners push the boundaries of quantum research. ZPC's product line centers on dilution refrigerators that reach millikelvin temperatures. The Model L is the large-scale performer, offering a 340-mm diameter experimental space, base temperature below 10 mK, cooling power of roughly 250 μW at 100 mK (upgradeable to 400 μW), a cooldown time under 30 hours, and a footprint of about 1.8 m². The Model I is an inverted, table-top design with optical access ready and simple single-person sample exchange. The Continuous Cold series is available in Model L and Model I formats with base temperatures of 500 mK, 0.9 K, and 1.4 K and cooldown times of 8–10 hours, including a patented 500 mK phase separation refrigerator. A 77 K cryostat with cooldown under 45 minutes serves teaching laboratories and multi-discipline work. Accessories include enhanced vibration isolation, optical access, superconducting magnets, and custom RF coax, DC, and high-density wiring. The company emphasizes reliability through all-metal seals and laser-welded assemblies, open-source software integration via Python scripting, remote operation and monitoring, compact design, and dedicated customer support from purchase through installation. Its systems support superconducting magnets, optical fibers, and RF and DC wiring configurations, and are marketed to quantum computing and materials science researchers. ZPC positions itself on customization, durability, and long-term system performance, with the tagline "Colder for Longer."

Zero Point Cryogenics was founded in 2017 by Dr. John P. Davis, building on decades of low-temperature physics research. The company was established with the vision of revolutionizing cryogenic technology, drawing on deep academic roots and expertise to help research partners advance quantum research. From its base in Canada, ZPC developed a product line of dilution refrigerators and cryostats manufactured in North America, targeting the quantum computing and low-temperature research industries. The company's early offerings focused on dilution refrigerators capable of reaching millikelvin temperatures. The Model L was developed as a large-scale performer with a 340-mm diameter experimental space, base temperature below 10 mK, and cooling power of approximately 250 μW at 100 mK, upgradeable to 400 μW. The Model I followed as a compact, inverted table-top design with optical access and single-person sample exchange. ZPC also introduced the Continuous Cold series, available in Model L and Model I formats with base temperatures of 500 mK, 0.9 K, and 1.4 K, including a patented 500 mK phase separation refrigerator. A 77 K cryostat with cooldown under 45 minutes was added for teaching laboratories and multi-discipline applications. Throughout its development, ZPC emphasized reliability through all-metal seals and laser-welded assemblies, open-source software integration via Python scripting, remote operation and monitoring, and dedicated customer support. The company positioned its systems for use with superconducting magnets, optical fibers, and RF and DC wiring configurations, serving researchers in quantum computing and materials science. Its tagline, "Colder for Longer," reflects its focus on extended cold time and minimal user intervention.
