Abstract
The past few years have seen a surge in interest in the engineering applications for a cryogenic environment. Although the effect of low temperatures on many physical phenomenon has been an active field of research for a long time, commercial applications have been realized only recently. Rapid advances in superconducting material technology and a continuous quest for efficient systems promises a bright future for the advent of power cryoelectronics.
