Abstract
We describe here a tensile testing machine suitable for severe conditions imposed by ultrahigh vacuum and for the different surface analysis techniques associated with it. The apparatus allows to apply a gradually tensile force to a sample ribbon heated to a high temperature by the Joule effect. It gives the experimenter the possibility to rotate the stressed specimen and to adjust its position in front of different requisite analyzers (Auger electron spectrometer, for instance). This tensile testing machine can be used for carrying out kinetic studies on the stress oxidation of metals and alloys at high temperatures in well-determined conditions.
