Description

Physics experiments featuring liquid noble gas time projection chambers are becoming larger in scale. Consequently, their high voltage (HV) requirements have increased as well, making conventional design HV feedthrough (FT) impracticable. A new concept for an HV cable FT usable in a cryogenic environment is presented in this talk. It features a co-extruded multi-layered coaxial cable fabricated with a single material and relies on the ability to develop a plastic material with tunable resistivity.
