Abstract

A new one-piece glass device for determining the temperature and concentration dependences of the electrical conductions of alkali metals and their alloys in high static vacuum conditions with an error of ∼0.4% is described. The device is intended to perform repeated measurements for each alloy to collect required data statistics. The measurement results of the electrical conduction of pure potassium and its cesium alloys confirmed the reliability and accuracy of obtained data.
