DC Voltage Linearity Measurements and DVM Calibration with Conventional and Programmable Josephson Voltage Standards
نویسنده
چکیده
Traditional calibration of dc voltage high accuracy digital voltmeters (DVMs) using conventional and Programmable Josephson Voltage Standards at INMETRO show improvements between 73.7 % and 98.3 % when compared with a regular calibration technique. Some calibration results as well as DVM linearity and gain drift analysis (up to 10 V range) are presented and discussed in this paper.

Development of Josephson Voltage Standards
Exciting applications of superconductivity are based on the macroscopic quantum state which exists in a superconductor. In this chapter we investigate the behaviour of junctions consisting of two weakly coupled superconductors. These junctions are nowadays called Josephson junctions1 (Josephson, 1962). The macroscopic quantum state results in an exceptional behaviour of these Josephson junction...
متن کاملThe Calibration of dc Voltage Standards at NIST
This document describes the procedures used at NIST to calibrate dc voltage standards in terms of the NIST volt. Three calibration services are offered by the Electricity Division: Regular Calibration Service (RCS) of client standard cells at NIST; the Volt Transfer Program (VTP) a process to determine the difference between the NIST volt and the volt as maintained by a group of standard cells ...
متن کاملAn AC Josephson Voltage Standard for AC-DC Transfer-Standard Measurements
In order to improve the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) low-voltage calibration service for thermal-voltage converters, we have constructed an ac-Josephsonvoltage-standard (ACJVS) system that can synthesize accurate rms voltages of up to 100 mV. Using this system, we synthesized dc voltages and audio-frequency sine waves in order to measure ac–dc differences on the 22 mV a...

متن کاملAC-DC Transfer Standard Measurements Using An AC Josephson Voltage Standard
NIST is implementing the Josephson arbitrary waveform synthesizer as an ac Josephson Voltage Standard (ACJVS). Over the past few years we have demonstrated precise measurements of synthesized sine waves at rms voltage amplitudes up to 170 mV. The system can generate a variety of precision voltage outputs including dc voltages and ac sinewaves, so it can be used as a quantum-based voltage source...
