Abstract

The strain characteristics of p-type silicon whisker crystals have been investigated in the temperature range of 4.2 – 300 K. On their basis, strain gauges with an anomalously high gauge factor at 4.2 K have been developed for measuring deformation in various materials at cryogenic temperatures, as well as strain gauges operable at helium temperatures in strong magnetic fields
