"First, what's the magnitude of the noise caused by grain boundaries that cryogenic treatment allegedly "cures" compared to the general thermal noise of the conductor? Seems to me that the noise you're referring to here would have to be pretty well buried within the conductor's thermal noise to begin with."Since proponents of LCC single crystal copper claim this as a benefit of the single crystal copper wire, I would think it is an order of a magnitude improvement over LCC Single crystal copper.
As for the "magnitude of noise"...not sure but it must be of some interest as this is what LCC single crystal copper is touted as ameliorating."Second, how does the cryogenic process differ, in terms of results, from the more common heat annealing process?"
Well, heat annealing is to obtain the required properties one desires in the metal, whether it be softening, normalising, stress relieving or hardening. Cryogenics is normally done after the heat annealing to strengthen the atomic/crystal structure.
