Simple differential thermometer using a thermocouple with a SQUID detector

Conference · · AIP Conf. Proc.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6100322

Details of design and construction of a simple and rugged thermocouple differential thermometer are presented. Gold + 0.03 at. % iron wire is used, with niobium leads connected to a SQUID. It is demonstrated that at 1 K the response time is about 15 ms and that the temperature sensitivity of 10/sup -7/ K with a 10 Hz filter is Johnson-noise limited. 3 references.
