TL;DR: This work demonstrates that the accuracy of a semiconductor quantum dot pump can be dramatically improved by using specially designed gate drive waveforms, and is a promising candidate for further development as a realization of the SI base unit ampere, following a redefinition of the amperes in terms of a fixed value of the elementary charge.
Abstract: Single electron pumps have been proposed as potential candidates for redefining the ampere. This study reports measurements of the quantized current flowing through a semiconductor electron pump with a precision that makes a substantial step towards establishing a direct metric for electrical currents.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a comparison campaign of selected frequency references maintained in their laboratories during about 25 days in October/November 2004, using two-way satellite time and frequency transfer (TWSTFT) in an intensified measurement schedule of 12 equally spaced measurements per day.
Abstract: Istituto Elettrotecnico Nazionale Galileo Ferraris (IEN), National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), National Physical Laboratory (NPL), Laboratoire National de Metrologie et d'Essais—Observatoire de Paris/Systemes de Reference Temps Espace (OP) and Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) operate cold-atom based primary frequency standards which are capable of realizing the SI second with a relative uncertainty of 1 × 10−15 or even below. These institutes performed an intense comparison campaign of selected frequency references maintained in their laboratories during about 25 days in October/November 2004. Active hydrogen maser reference standards served as frequency references for the institutes' fountain frequency standards. Three techniques of frequency (and time) comparisons were employed. Two-way satellite time and frequency transfer (TWSTFT) was performed in an intensified measurement schedule of 12 equally spaced measurements per day. The data of dual-frequency geodetic Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers were processed to yield an ionosphere-free linear combination of the code observations from both GPS frequencies, typically referred to as GPS TAI P3 analysis. Last but not least, the same GPS raw data were separately processed, allowing GPS carrier-phase (GPS CP) based frequency comparisons to be made. These showed the lowest relative frequency instability at short averaging times of all the methods. The instability was at the level of 1 part in 1015 at one-day averaging time using TWSTFT and GPS CP. The GPS TAI P3 analysis is capable of giving a similar quality of data after averaging over two days or longer. All techniques provided the same mean frequency difference between the standards involved within the 1σ measurement uncertainty of a few parts in 1016. The frequency differences between the three fountains of IEN (IEN-CsF1), NPL (NPL-CsF1) and OP (OP-FO2) were evaluated. Differences lower than the 1σ measurement uncertainty were observed between NPL and OP, whereas the IEN fountain deviated by about 2σ from the other two fountains.

TL;DR: The ChOx/NanoZnO-CHIT/ITO bioelectrode exhibits linearity from 5 to 300 mg dl(-1) of cholesterol with detection limit, sensitivity and value as well as the value of Michaelis-Menten constant (K(m)) can be used to estimate cholesterol in serum samples.

TL;DR: The Climate Absolute Radiance and Refractivity Observatory (CLARREO) mission as discussed by the authors provides a calibration laboratory in orbit for the purpose of accurately measuring and attributing climate change.
Abstract: The Climate Absolute Radiance and Refractivity Observatory (CLARREO) mission will provide a calibration laboratory in orbit for the purpose of accurately measuring and attributing climate change. CLARREO measurements establish new climate change benchmarks with high absolute radiometric accuracy and high statistical confidence across a wide range of essential climate variables. CLARREO's inherently high absolute accuracy will be verified and traceable on orbit to Systeme Internationale (SI) units. The benchmarks established by CLARREO will be critical for assessing changes in the Earth system and climate model predictive capabilities for decades into the future as society works to meet the challenge of optimizing strategies for mitigating and adapting to climate change. The CLARREO benchmarks are derived from measurements of the Earth's thermal infrared spectrum (5–50 μm), the spectrum of solar radiation reflected by the Earth and its atmosphere (320–2300 nm), and radio occultation refractivity from which...

TL;DR: In this paper, the reproducibility of the mobility of organic semiconducting materials was investigated using the space-charge limited current (SCLC) method and the authors found that mobility measured on nominally identical devices could vary by more than one order of magnitude with the largest sources of variation being poor electrodes and film thickness variation.
