When NIST scientist Tasshi Dennis first encountered quantum physics as a student, he was skeptical it would ever amount to any practical applications. Little
For NIST physicist Julia Scherschligt, the most exciting thing about quantum is seeing the real-world applications of this science. Julia leads a group that is
Far-infrared (or terahertz/THz, ca. 25 to 300 micron wavelength) femtosecond pulsed laser and Fourier-transform infrared methods are employed to measure
PRIME (Platform for Realizing Integrated Molecule Experiments) aims to establish primary, quantum-based realizations for both the radiometric watt and kelvin
Every four years, the Committee on Data for Science and Technology (CODATA) issues recommended values of the fundamental physical constants. The values are
Our research focuses on the use of quantum logic techniques to prepare, control, and measure the rovibrational and electronic states of single trapped molecular
