An Initial Reproduction of SI Capacitance Unit From a New Calculable Capacitor at NIM
A new type of calculable capacitor was initially built at the National Institute of Metrology, China, in cooperation with the National Measurement Institute, Australia. The capacitor realized the SI unit of capacitance at 1 pF, with an uncertainty of 20 parts in 10 9 . A simplified operational appro...

Zusammenfassung: | A new type of calculable capacitor was initially built at the National Institute of Metrology, China, in cooperation with the National Measurement Institute, Australia. The capacitor realized the SI unit of capacitance at 1 pF, with an uncertainty of 20 parts in 10 9 . A simplified operational approach was used that avoids the complex substitution measuring process with small-value capacitors. The details of novel aspects of the installation and adjustment processes are presented, together with the experimental results and an initial uncertainty estimation. |
