A Dual-Balance High-Resistance Bridge in the Range of 1 T{Ω} to 100 T{Ω}

Published

Author(s)

Dean G. Jarrett

Abstract

The NIST dual-balance guarded active-arm bridge, using a third dc source and a second detector to balance the guard network, is described. Improvements to the NIST guarded active-arm bridge and the design and construction of improved high resistance standards have facilitated the extension of NIST calibration services to the 10 T{Ω} and 100 T{Ω} decades of resistance.
