PRODUCTION AND USE OF HIGH-GRADE SILICON-DIODE TEMPERATURE SENSORS.

Author(s) : SONDERICKER J.

Summary

THE DEVELOPMENT AND APPLICATION OF SILICON DIODE TEMPERATURE SENSORS FOR CRYOGENIC APPLICATIONS IN ISABELLE IS DESCRIBED. SELECTION OF A STABLE SILICON DIODE SHOWING MINIMAL JUNCTION VOLTAGE DROP IS DISCUSSED. A CALIBRATION CRYOSTAT CONSISTING OF AN EVACUATED POT SUSPENDED IN A LIQUID HELIUM FILLED DEWAR WAS CONSTRUCTED, AND USED TO CALIBRATE THE SENSORS USED IN ISA PROJECTS SHOWS A FAILURE RATE OF LESS THAN 1 PER CENT. PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH CRYOGENIC THERMOMETRY FALLING SHORT OF CATASTROPHIC FAILURE ARE DISCUSSED.
