Concept for improved vacuum pressure measuring deviceTo measure vacuum pressures in the range of 5 times 10 to the minus 7 to 5 times 10 to the minus 16, a semiconductor resistor composed of sintered zinc oxide is used. Through the effect of surface absorbed gases on the resistance of the semiconductor material, very low pressures are measured.
