A simple DIY electrical resistivity apparatus for students
Rafiq Mulla
Abstract:A simple do-it-yourself (DIY) apparatus is designed and built for the measurement of the electrical resistivity of materials. The tool is portable and easy to operate, and students/new researchers can build their own apparatus with a minimum amount of time and raw materials. The apparatus’ spring-loaded four-point probes help provide a good electrical contact between the sample surface and the probes. It has been checked for its reliability by comparing the resistivity data with literature values and the measu… Show more
