  • Patent number: 10837838
    Abstract: A substrate for a sensor assembly of a resistance thermometer is disclosed. The substrate is comprised of aluminum oxide and zirconium dioxide and has a thermal coefficient of expansion approximately equal to the terminal coefficient of expansion of platinum.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 1, 2016
    Date of Patent: November 17, 2020
    Assignee: TE CONNECTIVITY SENSORS GERMANY GMBH
    Inventors: Heinrich Zitzmann, Horst Sirtl, Dirk Nusse
  • Patent number: 10842020
    Abstract: A substrate for a sensor assembly of a resistance thermometer is disclosed. The substrate has a plurality of first layers formed of a first material and a plurality of second layers formed of a second material. The first and second layers are disposed over one another such that a thermal coefficient of expansion of the substrate is approximately equal to the thermal coefficient of expansion of platinum.

  • Patent number: 10663352
    Abstract: A sensor assembly for a resistance thermometer is disclosed. The sensor assembly comprises a substrate, a measuring structure disposed on the substrate, and a cover layer disposed on the measuring structure. The cover layer has a plurality of first layers formed of a first material and a plurality of second layers formed of a second material. The first and second layers are disposed over one another such that a thermal coefficient of expansion of the cover layer is adapted to a thermal coefficient of expansion of the measuring structure.
