NIST Comparison of the Quantized Hall Resistance and the Realization of the SI OHM Through the Calculable Capacitor
نویسندگان
چکیده
Tbe latest NIST result from the comparison of the quantized Hall resistance (QHR) with the realization of the SI ohm obtained from the NIST calculable capacitor is reported. A small difference between the 1988 result and the present result has led to a re-evaluation of the sources and magnitudes of possible systematic errors.

The quantum Hall effect as an electrical resistance standard
The quantum Hall effect (QHE) provides an invariant reference for resistance linked to natural constants. It is used worldwide to maintain and compare the unit of resistance. The reproducibility reached today is almost two orders of magnitude better than the uncertainty of the determination of the ohm in the international system of units SI. In this article, mainly the aspects of the QHE releva...
متن کاملTowards a Determination of RK in Terms of the New LNE Calculable Cross Capacitor
In the scope of a possible redefinition in the SI, the LNE has decided to develop a new Thompson Lampard calculable capacitor to decrease its uncertainty on the value of von Klitzing constant, RK, to a level of one part in 10. This paper gives an overview of the French experiment. The main characteristics of the new French standard are detailed. The fabrication of a new set of electrodes and re...

At the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the U.S. representation of the ohm is based on the quantum Hall effect, and it is maintained and disseminated at various resistance levels by working reference groups of standards. This document describes the measurement systems and procedures used to calibrate standard resistors and current shunts of nominal decade values in the res...
متن کاملStability of Double-Walled Manganin Resistors
The resistance standard described by James L. Thomas [1] was the result of his extensive effort to develop a new standard by systematically investigating every factor affecting the stability of resistance— time, surface effects, temperature, power, pressure— detectable at the time. The result was a unique standard which was used as part of the National Reference Group of resistors beginning in ...
متن کاملRole of coherence in resistance quantization Quantum Hall and quantum point contact versus charge relaxation resistance
The quantization of resistances in the quantum Hall effect and ballistic transport through quantum point contacts is compared with the quantization of the charge relaxation resistance of a coherent mesoscopic capacitor. While the former two require the existence of a perfectly transmitting channel, the charge relaxation resistance remains quantized for arbitrary backscattering. The quantum Hall...
