Abstract

Two Josephson Array Voltage Standard Systems using different calibration algorithms are operated at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). A manual switch system is designed to make system comparisons by measuring against the 1.018 V of three Zener references. The difference of the average of the three Zener references is smaller than 1 nV.
