Quantum Hall Resistance Traceability for the NIST-4 Watt Balance

July 10, 2016
Author(s)
Dean G. Jarrett, Randolph Elmquist, Marlin E. Kraft, George R. Jones Jr., Shamith Payagala, Frank Seifert, Stephan Schlamminger, Darine El Haddad
Scaling from the quantum Hall resistance to 100 Ω standard resistors used by the NIST-4 Watt Balance involves multiple resistance standards and bridges to provide the lowest possible uncertainty. Described here is the infrastructure and procedures

Third Generation of Adapted Wheatstone Bridge for High Resistance Measurements at NIST

July 10, 2016
Author(s)
Dean G. Jarrett, Shamith Payagala, Marlin E. Kraft, Kwang Min Yu
A third generation of adapted Wheatstone bridge is being developed at NIST to improve high resistance measurements and scaling from 1 TΩ to 10 PΩ. Improvements to extend range and reduce uncertainties include automated calibration of the voltage sources

10 Volt Automated Direct Comparison of Two Cryocooled Programmable Josephson Voltage Standards

July 9, 2016
Author(s)
Alain Rufenacht, Yi-hua D. Tang, Paul Dresselhaus, Charles J. Burroughs, Robert E. Schwall, Samuel P. Benz
We have performed direct dc comparisons between two cryocooled 10 V programmable Josephson voltage standards utilizing an automated synchronization scheme for the voltage reversals, which enables the use of a high sensitivity null detector on its 3 µV

Direct comparison of a Pulse-driven Josephson Arbitrary Waveform Synthesizer and a Programmable Josephson Voltage Standard at 1 Volt

July 9, 2016
Author(s)
Alain Rufenacht, Nathan Flowers-Jacobs, Anna Fox, Charles J. Burroughs, Paul Dresselhaus, Samuel P. Benz
We have performed direct ac comparisons between two types of quantum voltage standards, a pulse- driven Josephson arbitrary waveform synthesizer and a programmable Josephson voltage standard, at 1 V rms amplitude and a frequency of 100 Hz. The system

Improved spectra aberration in the Johnson Noise Thermometry

July 9, 2016
Author(s)
Alessio Pollarolo, Horst Rogalla, Anna Fox, Kevin J. Coakley, Weston L. Tew, Samuel P. Benz
SPECTRAL ABERRATION HAS BEEN FOR A LONG TIME THE MAIN SOURCE OF UNCERTAINTY IN THE JOHNSON NOISE THERMOMETRY APPROACH TO MEASURING THE BOLTZMANN CONSTANT. RECENTLY, WITH NEWLY DEVELOPED HARDWARE AND THE INTRODUCTION OF A NOVEL FITTING ALGORITHM FOR

Josephson-Based Full Digital Bridge for High-Accuracy Impedance Comparisons

July 9, 2016
Author(s)
Frederic Overney, Nathan Flowers-Jacobs, Blaise Jeanneret, Alain Rufenacht, Anna Fox, Jason Underwood, Andrew D. Koffman, Samuel P. Benz
This paper describes a Josephson-based impedance bridge capable of comparing any types of impedance over a large bandwidth. The heart of the bridge is a dual AC Josephson Voltage Standards (ACJVS) source which offers unprecedented flexibility in high

Laser Refractometer as a Transfer Standard of the Pascal

July 9, 2016
Author(s)
Patrick Egan, Jack A. Stone Jr., Jacob Edmond Ricker, Jay H. Hendricks
We have developed a new low pressure sensor which is based on the measurement of (nitrogen) gas refractivity inside a Fabry-Perot (FP) cavity. We compare pressure determinations via this laser refractometer to that of well-established ultrasonic manometers

Simultaneous Double Waveform Synthesis with a Single Programmable Josephson Voltage Standard

July 9, 2016
Author(s)
Alain Rufenacht, Anna Fox, Paul Dresselhaus, Charles J. Burroughs, Samuel P. Benz, Bryan C. Waltrip, Thomas L. Nelson
We have recently demonstrated new 2 V PJVS devices configured with two voltage outputs and two sets of least significant bits in order to simultaneously generate two independent stepwise output waveforms. This development improves upon our previous

Influence of Antimony-Halogen Additives on Flame Propagation

July 8, 2016
Author(s)
Valeri I. Babushok, Peter Deglmann, Gregory T. Linteris, Roland H. Kraemer
A kinetic model for flame inhibition by antimony-halogen compounds in hydrocarbon flames is developed. Thermodynamic data for the relevant species are assembled from the literature, and calculations are performed for a large set of additional species of Sb

PORPHYRIN-BASED CHEMISTRY FOR CARBON CAPTURE AND SEQUESTRATION

July 8, 2016
Author(s)
Winnie K. Wong-Ng, Lawrence P. Cook, Greg Brewer
Two major types of porphyrinic framework structures offer promise for carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) applications: 1) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in which the porphyrins serve as struts linking vertices comprised of metal -based clusters; 2)
