Improvements in the Nist Calibration Service for Thermal Transfer Standards
We report on multiple improvements made in the calibration services offered for thermal converters and thermal transfer standards in the ac-dc Difference Standards and Measurement Techniques Project at NIST during the past year. The major improvement in this calibration is the increased efficiency made possible by the consolidation of three disparate calibration services – low voltage thermal t...
متن کاملThe NIST EOS Thermal-Infrared Transfer Radiometer
A portable Thermal-Infrared Transfer Radiometer (TXR) has been developed for use in intercomparisons and scale verifications of sources used to calibrate thermal-infrared (TIR) channels of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA’s) Earth Observing System (EOS) flight instruments. The TXR is designed to measure the radiance temperature of large area blackbody sources in cryogen...
متن کاملIntercomparison of the LBIR Absolute Cryogenic Radiometers to the NIST Optical Power Measurement Standard
The Low Background Infrared calibration (LBIR) facility at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) presently maintains four absolute cryogenic radiometers (ACRs) which serve as standard reference detectors for infrared calibrations performed by the facility. The primary standard for optical power measurements at NIST-Gaithersburg has been the High Accuracy Cryogenic Radiometer...
متن کاملComparison of Two Cryogenic Radiometers at NIST
Two cryogenic radiometers from NIST, one from the Optical Technology Division and the other from the Optoelectronics Division, were compared at three visible laser wavelengths. For this comparison, each radiometer calibrated two photodiode trap detectors for spectral responsivity. The calibration values for the two trap detectors agreed within the expanded (k = 2) uncertainties. This paper desc...
متن کاملNIST-F1: recent improvements and accuracy evaluations∗
In the last several years we have made many improvements to NIST-F1 (a laser-cooled Cs fountain primary frequency standard at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Boulder, Colorado) resulting in a reduction by over a factor of 2 in the uncertainty of the realization of the SI second. The two most recent accuracy evaluations of NIST-F1 had combined standard fractional unc...
