 A 41 mK hybrid refrigerator (Gifford - McMahon and pulse-tube) was built very early in Japan. The pulse-tube was used as 4K stage, making this machine a genuine pulse-tube based dilution unit. The performance was poor, however, due to the Gifford - McMahon high temperature stage.  A 41 mK hybrid refrigerator (Gifford - McMahon and pulse-tube) was built very early in Japan.

 Kurt Uhlig, in Garching, developed several machines of increasing performance. The first refrigerator reached 15 mK with a continuous heat exchanger (2002). A new model with a double mixing-chamber reached 4.3 mK (2004). A different machine with step heat exchangers allowed reaching T<10 mK (2012):  Kurt Uhlig, in Garching, developed several machines of increasing performance.

-A commercial pulse-tube dilution refrigerator was developed in 1999 in Grenoble (France) by H. Godfrin and Ch. Gianèse (CNRS) and the company l'Air Liquide. The first commercial machine (PT-DR1) was delivered to A. Giuliani (Cuoricino experiment) in 2003. With 4 sintered silver heat exchangers, the refrigerator had a base temperature of 5 mK. Because of patents and industrial know-how agreements, details were published later:  +{{ pt-dr1.jpg?270|PT-DR1 Source: Godfrin & Gianese/Air Liquide}}
