Thermal Conductivity of Borosilicate Glass
Abstract
The thermal conductivity of a borosilicate glass has been measured in the temperature range 0.05-50 K. The samples contained well-defined holes to provide a source of phonon scattering. The results are consistent with the predictions of the Debye model using experimentally measured sound velocities. The results also indicate that thermal transport at temperatures below \ensuremath{\approx} 30 K is provided by low-frequency phonons having a characteristic temperature \ensuremath{\lesssim} 3 K.

The thermal conductivity of the substrate and the electrical resistance of the sensor chip change significantly in order of magnitude as a function of temperature.
“Those variables have been reported to change significantly in order of magnitude as a function of the temperature [8] [10].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
