Abstract in another language

A new high temperature gauge to simultaneously determine the electrical conductivity, the Hall constant, and the Seebeck coefficient has been developed. Screen-printed heating structures on a ceramic sample holder are used to generate temperatures up to 800 ∘C by Joule heating. The heating structures were designed using the finite element method (FEM) simulations and the temperature distribution was validated by thermal imaging. To measure the Seebeck coefficient, thermocouples with different geometries were investigated and successfully integrated into the gauge. Measurements on constantan, a typical Seebeck coefficient reference material with high electrical conductivity, high charge carrier concentration, and a known Seebeck coefficient, as well as on a well-described boron-doped silicon wafer confirm the functionality of the gauge up to 800 ∘C.
