When a quantum dot is subjected to a thermal gradient, the temperature of electrons entering the dot can be determined from the dot's thermocurrent if the conductance spectrum and background temperature are known. We demonstrate this technique by measuring the temperature difference across a 15 nm quantum dot embedded in a nanowire. This technique can be used when the dot's energy states are se...

Measurements of the temperature of the various parts of the rabbit eye under both local and general Nembutal anesthesia were made ivith the thermistor as the temperature-measuring device at a room temperature of 22 to 24° C, and a relative humidity of 33 to 53 per cent. The equipment and its calibration are described in detail. The existence of a temperature difference of 6° C. (corrected for t...

A new direct contact platform for capillary column precise temperature control based upon the use of individually controlled sequentially aligned Peltier thermoelectric units is presented. The platform provides rapid temperature control for capillary and microbore liquid chromatography columns and allows simultaneous temporal and spatial temperature programming. The operating temperature range ...
