Apparatus and method for sub-ambient cooling using thermoelectric cooling in convention with dynamics conventional cooling techniques. In one form, a vapor phase cooling system provides a temperature (T) and is associated with a thermoelectric cooler. The thermoelectric cooler provides a differential temperature .DELTA.T utilizing thermodynamics such as Peltier cooling. The thermoelectric cooler therefore provides a temperature of approximately T-.DELTA.T to an object.

1. An apparatus comprising:an object; an active cooling system; and a thermoelectric cooler situated to be between the object and the active cooling system and coupled to the object and said active cooling system, wherein the object is thermally insulated from the active cooling system while being thermally coupled to the thermoelectric cooler such that heat transfer between the object and the active cooling system is through the thermoelectric cooler.
