Abstract
We have investigated the behavior of carbon resistor and capacitive thermometers from 4.2 to below 0.1 K and to 19 T. We observe, in agreement with previous work at higher temperatures, a nonmonotonic magnetoresistance in a standard carbon resistor for thermometry below 1.0 K. We provide the reader with an expression for the magnetoresistance which may be used, with proper precalibration for a particular sensor, to determine the temperature from a reading of the resistance and the magnetic field. In addition, we discuss epoxy mixing chambers for dilution refrigerators and discuss results which indicate that certain materials can be magnetized and demagnetized at low temperatures. Finally, we report measurements on two types of capacitive temperature sensors which also exhibit magnetoeffects.
