Designated Micro-thermal Sensor (MTS) Cell Profile Thermal Conductivity / Diffusivity Assessment Area

This section houses Micro-thermal Sensor System designed specifically for use of the Choi-patented Micro-thermal Sensor (MTS).

Micro-thermal Sensors are tested for function.

Cells are tested with MTS for thermal conductivity/diffusivity profile.
