Abstract

In modulation measurements, various methods are applicable to detect temperature oscillations. First, they were determined from oscillations in the resistance of the sample, thermionic current, or radiation from it. Later, separate temperature sensors, thermocouples and resistance thermometers, served for this purpose. Oscillations of the thermionic current are usable only in special cases, and this technique is now out of use. The choice of an adequate method to measure the temperature oscillations is very important. It depends on the temperature range, shape and electrical conductivity of the sample, and on the modulation frequency.
