Abstract
Temperature measurements below 100°K are generally accomplished using one of four basic sensing elements—thermocouples, resistance thermometers, semiconductors, and gas thermometers. The first three devices depend on the conversion of an output voltage to the desired temperature information. They are, therefore, basically electrical in nature, The latter, depending only on the unique temperature-pressure relationship of a pure gas, is inherently thermodynamic in character.
Work performed under the auspices of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission.
