RESISTANCE TEMPERATURE
DETECTOR• Resistance Temperature Detectors are temperature sensors that contain a resistor
that changes resistance value as its temperature changes.
• Many conductive materials change resistance with the change in temperature.
• Common RTD sensing elements have a repeatable resistance versus temperaturerelationship (R vs T) and operating temperature range.
R=Rref[1+α(T-Tref)]Where,R= Resistance at temperature “T”.Rref= Resistance at reference temperature (usually 21˚C)α=Temperature Co-efficient of Resistivity for the sensor.T=Unknown Temperature to be measured.Tref=Reference Temperature taken (21˚C).

• H. Morikawa et al. investigated the behavior of ITO filmson substrate.
• The film is almost amorphous including a small amountof nuclei, most of which are generated directly on thesubstrate surface during deposition.
• Observed that ITO changes its crystal structure whensubjected to high temperatures.
• Decrease in Resistivity because of increase in carrier concentration supplied by Sn atoms which became active at high temperatures.

CONCLUSION FROM THE EXPERIMENTS

• Non-linear Temperature v/s Resistance Curve.
• Multiple tests didn’t give repeatable results.
• Increasing the Annealing time may fully crystallize the ITO grain structure.

LITERATURE REVIEW
• Paine et al. observed ITO thin film usingTEM technique and found that as-deposited ITO film has a fully amorphousstructure.
• After annealing in air at 162 °C, the samplebecomes crystalline consisting of largeblock-like grains that are, on average,approximately 100 nm in size.
• The Resistivity of the material changesbecause of relaxation of distorted bonds inthe as-deposited amorphous material.

LITERATURE REVIEW
• K.L. Fang et.al observed that after annealing at 150˚C for the ITO sample givesrelatively very less change in its resistivity.
• U.Betz et.al in their research concluded that :
- At 150 °C the thermal activation induces the structural relaxation mechanism, resultingin an initial decrease of the resistivity value.
- Crystallization process begins at 150 °C.
