In Search of Better Pressure Standards

August 1, 2014
Author(s)
Jay H. Hendricks, Jacob E. Ricker, Patrick F. Egan, Gregory F. Strouse
Based on highly accurate optical interferometry and fundamental quantum calculations, researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the US are developing an improved definition of the SI unit for pressure that will consign the

Metrology for comparison of displacements at the picometer level

July 31, 2014
Author(s)
Jack A. Stone Jr., Patrick F. Egan, Jay H. Hendricks, Gregory F. Strouse, Douglas A. Olson, Jacob E. Ricker, Gregory E. Scace, Donavon Gerty
An apparatus capable of comparing displacements with picometer accuracy is currently being designed at NIST. In principle, we wish to compare one displacement in vacuum to a second, equal displacement in gas, in order to determine gas refractive index. If

Rogers, M Anderle, M Lehocky, V Sedlarik
Recent advances in vacuum sciences and applications are reviewed. Novel optical interferometer cavity devices enable pressure measurements with ppm accuracy. Innovative dynamic vacuum standard allows for pressure measurements with temporal resolution of 2

Picometer Metrology for Precise Measurement of Refractive Index, Pressure, and Temperature

December 18, 2013
Author(s)
Jack A. Stone Jr., Patrick F. Egan, Donavon Gerty, Jay H. Hendricks, Douglas A. Olson, Jacob E. Ricker, Gregory E. Scace, Gregory F. Strouse
Fabry-Perot interferometers can be used for very precise measurement of the refractive index of gasses. This can enable increased accuracy of interferometer-based length measurement. In addition, because the refractive index of a gas depends on its

Picometer metrology for precise measurement of refractive index, pressure, and temperature

July 14, 2013
Author(s)
Jack A. Stone Jr., Patrick F. Egan, Jay H. Hendricks, Gregory F. Strouse, Douglas A. Olson, Jacob E. Ricker, Gregory E. Scace
For several years we have been studying the use of Fabry-Perot interferometers for precise measurement of the refractive index of gasses, where the primary motivation has been to improve interferometer-based length measurement. Because the refractive index

Faster, Better, Cheaper: New Automated Vacuum Calibration Service at NIST

October 1, 2012
Author(s)
Jacob E. Ricker, Jay H. Hendricks, Douglas A. Olson, Gregory F. Strouse
In today’s fast-paced world and ever expanding quality assurance requirements, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has developed a system to fill the need for faster, better, and cheaper low pressure calibrations (0.65 Pa to 130 kPa)

Towards portable vacuum standards

August 1, 2009
Author(s)
Jay H. Hendricks, Douglas A. Olson
Since the middle of the 17th century, when Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli discovered that a glass tube filled with mercury could be used to measure atmospheric pressure, liquid-column manometers have been used as a primary standard to measure

Effect of Dissolved Nitrogen Gas on the Density of Di-2-Ethylhexyl Sebacate: Working Fluid of the NIST Oil Ultrasonic Interferometer Manometer Pressure Standard

June 1, 2009
Author(s)
Jay H. Hendricks, Jacob R. Ricker, Justin H. Chow, Douglas A. Olson
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Low Pressure Manometry Laboratory maintains national pressure standards ranging from 1 mPa to 360 kPa through the operation of four ultrasonic interferometer manometer (UIM) pressure standards. NIST

Quantitative Measurement of Outgas Products From EUV Photoresists

March 14, 2008
Author(s)
Charles S. Tarrio, Bruce A. Benner Jr, Robert E. Vest, Steven E. Grantham, Shannon B. Hill, Thomas B. Lucatorto, Jay H. Hendricks, Patrick J. Abbott, Greg Denbeaux, Alin Antohe, Chimaobi Mbanaso, Kevin Orbek
The photon-stimulated emission of organic molecules from the photoresist during exposure is a serious problem for extreme- ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) because the adsorption of the outgassing products on the EUV optics can lead to carbonization and

A Low Differential-Pressure Primary Standard for the Range 1 Pa to 13 kPa

December 1, 2005
Author(s)
A P. Miiller, Charles R. Tilford, Jay H. Hendricks
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has completed the development of a low differential-pressure primary standard covering a range from 1 Pa to 13 kPa for operation with line pressures up to 200 kPa. The standard is based on a UIM
