106 almost negligible. The final accuracy achievable with these instruments depends on the overall stability of the various optical components over long periods of time and on the possibility of recalibration at one point using an external lamp or freezing-point blackbody. The long-term stability of these instruments and the preferred calibration techniques for them have still to be assessed.
107 PART 2: TECHNIQUES AND THERMOMETERS TRACEABLE TO THE INTERNATIONAL TEMPERATURE SCALE OF 1990 In all temperature ranges there are thermometers that are widely used because of certain advantages such as low cost and ease of use (e.g. base metal thermocouples), yet they are insufficiently reproducible to be included with those of Part 1. Temperatures measured with them are of course traceable to the ITS-90 through proper calibration procedures. There are also thermometers of only modest quality that are nevertheless extremely useful for certain special measurements (e.g. measurements in the presence of high magnetic fields). In Part 2 there are discussed the more commonly used thermometers in these categories. For the cryogenic range there are included the carbon, carbon-glass, and platinum-0.5% cobalt resistance thermometers, and silicon and gallium arsenide diodes. For higher temperatures, thermistors, liquid-in-glass thermometers, IPRTs, and base-metal thermocouples are so widely used, largely because they can provide in appropriate circumstances adequate reproducibility or accuracy at very low cost, that discussion of them is mandatory. Additionally, Chapter 19 treats the behaviour in magnetic fields of several of the thermometers of both Parts 1 and 2.
