Comparison of a 1 nF Capacitor with a 1 kO Resistor Using a Digital Impedance Bridge

March 27, 2024
Author(s)
Yicheng Wang, Stephan Schlamminger, Dean G. Jarrett, Alireza Panna, Andrew D. Koffman
This paper reports our effort to improve a digital impedance bridge. The limit of the bridge resolution and stability is less than 3 parts in 10^9 for the nominal 1:1 impedance comparison of two 100 pF capacitors. The type-A uncertainty for comparison of a

New Method for Determining Time Constant of Resistors

March 21, 2023
Author(s)
Yicheng Wang, Dean G. Jarrett, Andrew D. Koffman, Stephan Schlamminger
We report a new method for determining the time constant of ac resistors with values around 10 kΩ, using a digital impedance bridge for comparison of two nominally equal resistors. The method involves adding a probing capacitor in parallel to one of the

A Macroscopic Mass From Quantum Behavior In An Integrated Approach

Frank Seifert, Alireza Panna, Lorenz Keck, Leon Chao, Shamith Payagala, Dean G. Jarrett, Dipanjan Saha, Randolph Elmquist, Stephan Schlamminger, Albert Rigosi, David B. Newell, Darine El Haddad
The revision of the International System of Units (SI) on May 20th, 2019, has enabled new improved experiments to consolidate and simplify electrical and mechanical metrology currently underway. Historically within the SI, the definition of energy was only

Graphene Quantum Hall Effect Parallel Resistance Arrays

Alireza Panna, I Fan Hu, Mattias Kruskopf, Dinesh K. Patel, Dean G. Jarrett, Chieh-I Liu, Shamith Payagala, Dipanjan Saha, Albert Rigosi, David B. Newell, Chi-Te Liang, Randolph Elmquist
As first recognized in 2010, epitaxial graphene on SiC(0001) provides a platform for quantized Hall resistance (QHR) metrology unmatched by other 2D structures and materials. Here we report graphene parallel QHR arrays, with metrologically precise

The Next Generation of Current Measurement for Ionization Chambers

Ryan P. Fitzgerald, Denis E. Bergeron, Dean G. Jarrett, Neil M. Zimmerman, Carine Michotte, Hansjoerg Scherer, Stephen Giblin, Steven Judge
Re-entrant ionization chambers (ICs) are essential to radionuclide metrology and nuclear medicine for maintaining standards and measuring half-lives. Metrology-quality systems must be precise and stable to 0.1% over many years, and linear from 10^(-14) A

AC and DC Quantized Hall Array Resistance Standards

Randolph E. Elmquist, Mattias Kruskopf, Dinesh K. Patel, I Fan Hu, Chieh-I Liu, Albert F. Rigosi, Alireza R. Panna, Shamith U. Payagala, Dean G. Jarrett
Quantized Hall array resistance standards (QHARS) span values from 100 (ohm) to 1 M(ohm) and demonstrate precision approaching that of single devices. This paper focuses on QHARS having values near 1 k(ohm) for increased sensitivity using room-temperature

August 24, 2020
Author(s)
Shamith U. Payagala, Alana M. Dee, Dean G. Jarrett
The adapted Wheatstone bridge technique has been utilized at National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and other National Metrology Institutes (NMIs) for high resistance measurements. In this work, we evaluate the suitability of a

Evaluation of NMIJ Traveling Dual Source Bridge Using NIST Adapted Wheatstone Bridge

August 24, 2020
Author(s)
Takehiko Oe, Shamith U. Payagala, Dean G. Jarrett, Nobu-Hisa Kaneko
DC high resistance measurement capability has been evaluated using a NMIJ traveling dual source bridge between NIST and NMIJ. The NMIJ bridge determines the resistance ratio by measuring the voltage ratio using a digital multimeter, 3458A. Based on the
