A Highly Thermostable In(2)O(3)/ITO Thin Film Thermocouple Prepared via Screen Printing for High Temperature Measurements

An In(2)O(3)/ITO thin film thermocouple was prepared via screen printing. Glass additives were added to improve the sintering process and to increase the density of the In(2)O(3)/ITO films. The surface and cross-sectional images indicate that both the grain size and densification of the ITO and In(2...

description An In(2)O(3)/ITO thin film thermocouple was prepared via screen printing. Glass additives were added to improve the sintering process and to increase the density of the In(2)O(3)/ITO films. The surface and cross-sectional images indicate that both the grain size and densification of the ITO and In(2)O(3) films increased with the increase in annealing time. The thermoelectric voltage of the In(2)O(3)/ITO thermocouple was 53.5 mV at 1270 °C at the hot junction. The average Seebeck coefficient of the thermocouple was calculated as 44.5 μV/°C. The drift rate of the In(2)O(3)/ITO thermocouple was 5.44 °C/h at a measuring time of 10 h at 1270 °C.
