NIST photonic thermometer speeds up temperature measurements. 30 Aug 2023. Frequency comb approach allows faster operation of devices, potentially in parallel. Comb together: rapid sensing. A team at ...
NIST's breakthrough Rydberg thermometer achieves remarkable temperature measurement accuracy, leveraging quantum mechanics ...
To make their quantum thermometer, the NIST team started by placing rubidium gas in a vacuum chamber. They cooled it to near absolute zero—around 0.5 millikelvin—using lasers and magnetic fields.
NIST scientists have developed a new method for measuring temperature extremely accurately by using giant “Rydberg” atoms. This atomic thermometer provides accurate measurements “out of the ...
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). "New atom-based thermometer measures temperature more accurately." ScienceDaily. www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2025 / 01 / 250129194600 ...
ThermoWorks has introduced the world’s fastest cooking thermometer, the Thermapen ONE – the first and only one second instant-read thermometer – measuring at virtually the speed of thought (under one ...
Usually that’s done using some reference surface that’s held at a constant temperature via some sort of contact thermometer, and that contact thermometer has been calibrated to another contact ...
A team at NIST has built on its existing research into photonic thermometers and developed a way to speed up the operation of the devices. The improvement could allow the design of multiple photonic ...
