Abstract
The invention is directed primarily to a method of doping tin oxide with Ta.sub.2 O.sub.5 and/or Nb.sub.2 O.sub.5 using pyrochlore-related compounds derived from the system SnO--SnO.sub.2 --Ta.sub.2 O.sub.5 --Nb.sub.2 O.sub.5 for use in thick film resistor compositions. The invention is also directed to thick film resistors containing the above-described pyrochlore-related compounds and to various compositions and methods for making such thick film resistors.
