1. A zone box for a differential scanning calorimeter, comprising:
a first thermally conductive electrical insulator layer;
a second thermally conductive electrical insulator layer;
a plurality of thermocouple alloy sheets interposed between the first thermally conductive electrical insulator layer and the second thermally conductive electrical insulator layer, the plurality of thermocouple alloy sheets each formed of a same thermocouple alloy; and
a plurality of thermocouple alloy wires each electrically coupled to a respective one of the thermocouple alloy sheets and formed of a same thermocouple alloy as the respective one of the thermocouple alloy sheets.
