Summary

THE PROPERTIES OF SOME RUTHENIUM DIOXIDE THICK FILM RESISTORS, PHILIPS TYPE RC-01, HAVE BEEN STUDIED BETWEEN 15 MILLIK AND 4 K IN MAGNETIC FIELDS UP TO 5 T. RESISTORS WITH ROOM TEMPERATURE RESISTANCE VALUES BETWEEN ABOUT 1.0 AND 4.7 KILOOHMS APPEAR TO HAVE SUFFICIENT SENSITIVITY TO BE USED AS SECONDARY THERMOMETERS FOR TEMPERATURES LOWER THAN 4 K. THICK FILM RESISTORS HAVE SEVERAL ADVANTAGES OVER CARBON COMPOSITION RESISTANCE THERMOMETERS. HOWEVER, IN CONTRAST TO WHAT HAS BEEN PUBLISHED SO FAR ABOUT THICK FILM RESISTORS FROM OTHER MANUFACTURERS, THE TYPE RC-01 SHOWS A CONSIDERABLE MAGNETORESISTANCE, WHICH IS OF THE SAME ORDER AS THAT FOUND FOR CARBON RESISTORS.
