Summary

THE AUTHORS SELECTED AMORPHOUS SILICON AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR CARBON GLASS SINCE SILICON IS A MORE STABLE THERMOMETER ELEMENT WHICH CAN BE USED AT CRYOTEMPERATURES AND IN HIGH MAGNETIC FIELD ENVIRONMENTS. THE RESISTANCE OF MANY SILICON SAMPLES WAS MEASURED AT 4, 77 AND 300 K (-269, -196 AND 27 DEG C). BELOW 77 K, THE AMORPHOUS SILICON ALLOY HAS A SENSITIVITY WHICH IS COMPARABLE TO THAT OF A GERMANIUM RESISTANCE THERMOMETER AND IT IS LITTLE AFFECTED BY MAGNETIC FIELDS.
