* Contact pads act as heat sinks! This causes a non-uniform temperature profile across the heater. A few papers have shown that this is not as big of a problem for AC signals above 10 Hz. However, using a heater design that moves the voltage leads away from the contact pads can help to get rid of this problem. Comsol modeling has shown that the voltage leads do not significantly alter the temperature profile of the heater. | * Contact pads act as heat sinks!
