The aim of this thesis was to investigate the reliability of anodic vacuum arc plasma deposition technique in developing thin film thermocouples. This thesis presents a detailed description of the preparation and characterization of nanocrystalline thin films of Cu, Ni, Fe, Constantan, Chromel and Alumel, and their subsequent pairs as thin film thermocouples.
