Abstract :
Thermal performances of Si-Ge whiskers were measured in temperature range of 4, 2-550K. On their basis sensors for simultaneous measuring of absolute temperature and temperature difference in the range of 20-120K as well as 350-500K have been designed. High value of figure of merit indicates in good stability of sensor operation. Inertia of the sensor does not exceed 60 msec. To improve output performances of thermal sensors secondary signal processing systems were designed.
