Abstract:The resistivity and temperature coefficient of the resistance (TCR) of Cr-Si-C films are investigated with various microstructures changed by annealing up to 1000℃. The resistivity shows an abrupt change when the annealing temperature is between 450℃ and 600℃, reaching its peak at 540℃. In contrast, the TCR increases continuously and shifts from negative to positive values at around 510℃. The crystal phase, microstructure and composition of the Cr-Si-C films are analyzed using X-ray diffraction, scanning trans… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
