Summary NIST's gas flow meter calibrations support a wide range of industries that require low-uncertainty, SI-traceable measurements. These industries include
The dynamic gravimetric standard is used to calibrate micro-flow meters and to conduct research on new flow sensors. This micro-flow standard measures mass
The Hard X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (HAXPES) end station uses a tunable, focused X-ray beam in the tender spectrum (2.0 keV to 7.5 keV) to probe the depth
A Residual Gas Analyzer configured for demanding UHV applications The Hiden RGA for UHV are designed and configured for residual gas analysis in demanding UHV
The NCNR backscattering spectrometer is one of the highest intensity instruments of its kind. It enables very high energy resolution studies of the low
Description High-throughput (combinatorial) metrologies have evolved as a useful approach to rapidly determine the composition-structure-property relationships
High-Pressure BioSANS LIQUID INSERTION PRESSURE SYSTEM FOR SANS (LIPSS) LIPSS enables in situ SANS measurements under broad ranges of pressure and temperature
Large "Truck" Chamber The large "truck" chamber provides controlled air conditions from -7 °C (20 °F) to 65 °C (150 °F). Air-Conditioner and Heat Pump Test
This in-situ indentation system can be integrated into electron microscopes as well as being run in other unusual setups. With a load capacity of 150 mN, this
In order to enable studies of a range of indoor air quality and ventilation issues, EL maintains a highly instrumented three-bedroom test house. Previous
An integrating-sphere system has been designed and constructed for the measurement of multiple optical properties in the infrared spectral range. The absolute
As part of the building 245 modernization project, NIST has built a new facility designed to allow the testing of small radiation detection instruments, such as
Instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA), or sometimes referred to as simply NAA, is a method for determination of many elements at low levels in a wide
In the artificial ultraviolet (UV) weathering of materials, a need exists for weathering devices that can uniformly illuminate test specimens with a high level
