Qubit evaporator for the QCT lab

A Qubit evaporator is being installed in the QCT Lab. This system is necessary for in-house qubit development and production.

The brand-new Plassys evaporator allows the QCT group at IFAE to do all the experiment steps in-house: from samples creation to measurement.
