  • Abstract
    A novel process for the fabrication of thermocouples using thick-film techniques has been developed. Thermoelectric reactions of 22 μV/°C per couple have been observed which are comparable to those of conventional thermocouples. The paper outlines the potential for a rapid, low-cost, low temperature manufacturing solution for the production of electrical temperature sensors.
