摘要:
A magnetic refrigerator comprising a magnet generating a high-intensity magnetic field, a tube-shaped superconducting magnetic shield, a magnetic working material and a reciprocating means for reciprocatively moving the superconducting magnetic shield or the magnetic working material, the magnetic refrigerator being arranged such that a magnetization process wherein the magnetic working material is magnetized in the high-intensity magnetic field and a demagnetization process wherein the magnetic working material is demagnetized by being accommodated in the hollow section of the magnetic shield are repeated by the reciprocating means so that the magnetic working material generates coldness.By using the property of a tube-shaped superconductor which can shield the magnetism of an external magnetic field passing through the hollow section of the tube and can generate a zero-intensity magnetic field in the hollow section, the magnetic working material magnetized in the high-intensity magnetic field generated by the magnet is inserted into the hollow section of the tube-shaped superconducting shield and is demagnetized in an adiabatic condition to generate coldness. This coldness is used to cool the target cold bath.

A large-area superconductor magnetic shield comprising a plurality of small superconductor unit layers stuck onto the surface of a large-area substrate, wherein the external peripheral sections of the adjacent unit layers are overlapped mutually or the end sections of the adjacent unit layers are abutted mutually such that the adjacent unit layers do not make contact with one another. Compared with conventional magnetic shields, the magnetic shielding amount at the overlapping sections of the magnetic shield of the present invention is substantially greater.

Chip area and operating current is reduced in a chip having a write-inhibit circuit that uses a data-writing request signal WR and a write-control signal WRITE to inhibit data writing. By comparing a reference current Iref and a drive current ID, a current-mirror circuit CM can monitor the voltage of a power supply VDD. When the voltage of the power supply VDD is sufficiently high, the data-writing request signal WR is unchanged. Conversely, when the voltage of the power supply VDD is not sufficiently high, a transistor T6 producing reference-current ID and a buffer B2 cause the write-control signal to be low “L” irrespective of whether the data-writing request signal WR is at “H” or at “L”. Thus, miswriting can be prevented when the power-supply voltage decreases, since writing by the data-writing request signal WR is impossible.
