Hot contacts and cold resistors

How do you make durable electrical contacts that are also small? How do you measure electrical resistance at low temperatures? What different behavior of resistance is observed in different materials? How do you minimize measurement errors? We will be happy to answer these and other questions at our booth "Hot contacts and cold resistors".

description

We measure the resistance of metals and semiconductors at the booth. Or watch how a superconductor loses its electrical resistance. You are also welcome to use our spot welding equipment to apply electrical contacts to small metal samples.
