How to measure a high temperature ac conductivity with variable oxygen partial pressure and what accessories are required along with gas cylinder?

08 August 2013 0 4K Report

We have Solartron 1260 impedance analyzer along with Elite split furnace upto 1200 C and Probstat sample holder. Our pressure variation range is 10E+5 to 10E-15 atm O2 at constant temperature (say 800 C).
