Ceramic Conductivity
= precise and stable cells
History:
* idea and first request 1990
* 1993 first probe with collimated beams
in Ø 12mm design like a pH-probe
(still metal made)
* December 1993 first probe prototypes
* 1994 first applications
* November 1995 production capabilty

Advantage:
Compared to:
monolithic
stacked cells
absolutely smooth surface with
alternating conductivity
metallized and
coated cells
Hydrophobic surface
less surface conductivity
slight blurred response
using glass insulators
precise alternating conductivity:
insulating parts=
precise field geometry
metallisation and
metal injected ceramics
Pressure stable & no seals
stacked cells
High temperature capability
sealed cells
Hermetic sealed
stacked and sealed cells
Monolithic cell
Traditional stacked cell design or using traditional materials
