Standard of Physical Value

METROLOGICAL RELIABILITY OF THERMOELECRIC NANOSENSOR OF QUANTUM TEMPERATURE STANDARD

While studying the physical foundations of the temperature standard, we obtained a quantum unit of temperature as the value of the temperature jump when one electron-phonon scattering per unit time. We expressed it in terms of the ratio of fundamental physical constants h/kB; it is equal to 3.199 493 42 ∙ 10-11 K with a relative standard uncertainty of 59.2 ∙ 10-8. The investigated quantum standard is recommended for use as an "intrinsic standard", which does not require continuously repeated measurements (to check its accuracy) in relation to the current unit of temperature.
