Abstract

Both DC and AC electrical conductivity of materials provide a number of valuable informationon the nature of current carriers, 3-D effects, scattering by defects and impurities, formation of CDW, soliton propagation, non – linear and switching phenomenon and other characters pertaining to these compounds. These measurements are therefore carried out over a wide range of temperature, pressure, electric fields and impurity concentrations. Besides these, the low temperature studies of the materials are performed to determine Optical and Magnetic properties and etc. Therefore, a suitable sample holder is required to perform these studies with low temperature variations. In this paper, we report a design of such a suitable and simple sample holder, which can work up to liquid nitrogen temperature (77 K). This model is easy to fabricate, low cost, more efficient with less wastage in terms of liquid gases than other models. This model can be used for both low temperature dependent electrical conductivity at ambient pressure and clamped high pressure measurements within the given range
