Optimization of Focused Ion Beam-Tomography for Superconducting Electronics

August 27, 2014
Author(s)
Aric W. Sanders, Anna E. Fox, Paul D. Dresselhaus, Alexandra Curtin
Superconducting electronics play an important role in quantum computation, ultra-low power electronics, voltage standards and magnetic sensors. Many of these applications rely on the microfabrication of superconducting circuits with multiple wiring layers

A 100 Tohm Guarded Hamon Transfer Standard

August 24, 2014
Author(s)
Dean G. Jarrett, Edward O'Brien, Marlin E. Kraft
Guarded Hamon transfer standards are used at NIST for scaling to high resistance levels. An improved design for a guarded Hamon transfer standard in the range from 1 TΩ to 100 TΩ is described. Measurements taken to select the primary and guard resistor

Accurate High-Ohmic Resistance Measurement Techniques up to 1 Pohm

August 24, 2014
Author(s)
Dean G. Jarrett, Gert Rietveld, Beat Jeckelmann
An overview is presented on precision high-ohmic resistance measurements for values of 100 Mohmand above. The two main measurement techniques in this resistance range are discussed, the current integration technique and the adapted Wheatstone bridge. The
