| contents | Optical spectroscopy of quantum materials at ultralow temperatures is rarely explored, yet it may provide critical characterizations of quantum phases not possible using other approaches. We describe the development of a novel experimental platform that enables optical spectroscopic studies, together with standard electronic transport, of materials at millikelvin temperatures inside a dilution refrigerator. The instrument is capable of measuring both bulk crystals and micron-sized two-dimensional van der Waals materials and devices. We demonstrate the performance by implementing photocurrent-based Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy on a monolayer WTe$_2$ device and a multilayer 1T-TaS$_2$ crystal, with a spectral range available from the near-infrared to the terahertz regime and in magnetic fields up to 5 T. In the far-infrared regime, we achieve spectroscopic measurements at a base temperature as low as ~ 43 mK and a sample electron temperature of ~ 450 mK. Possible experiments and potential future upgrades of this versatile instrumental platform are envisioned. |
