1. A switch assembly for a cryogenic device analysis system, the assembly comprising:
a cold source conductive member extending lengthwise to a cold source; and
a cryogenic device conductive member extending lengthwise to a cryogenic device and at least partially overlapping at least a portion of the cold source conductive member, wherein either or both of the conductive members are biased to define an insulative space between the conductive members at the overlap in an open orientation.
