Radio Frequency Electrical Resistance Measurement under Destructive Pulsed Magnetic Fields

Abstract

We developed a resistance measurement using radio frequency reflection to investigate the electrical transport characteristics under destructive pulsed magnetic fields above 100 T. A homemade flexible printed circuit for a sample stage reduced the noise caused by the induced voltage from the pulsed magnetic fields, improving the accuracy of the measurements of the reflected waves. From the obtained reflectance data, the absolute value of the magnetoresistance was successfully determined by using a phase analysis with admittance charts. These developments enable more accurate and comprehensive measurements of electrical resistance in pulsed magnetic fields.
