OSTI ID:5699986

A cylindrical chamber of aluminum oxide for electrophysical studies of gaseous and solid dielectrics at high temperatures is described. The gas pressure in the chamber is atmospheric. An easily ionized admixture in the form of vapor of an alkali metal (K or Na) can be introduced into the gas. A high temperature is produced by an electric resistance furnace that allows heating to 2100 degrees K in an oxidizing medium without special shielding means. The use of materials such as A1/sub 2/O/sub 3/ and PtRh alloys makes it possible to conduct research that minimizes the level of contamination of the medium under study by vapors of the elements of the apparatus.
