Summary

The authors have established the magnetic-field independence up to 20 T of a capacitance thermometer based on the incommensurate crystal (lead-tin)-phosphorus-selenium in the temperature range from 25 milliK to 0.5 K. The sensitivity of the thermometer is about an order of magnitude larger than for any other previously reported capacitance thermometer. The reproducibility of the thermometer upon cycling below 1 K is better than 1 milliK.
