Decade of progress in high-temperature Johnson noise thermometry

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5395602

The theoretical foundation is presented for Johnson noise thermometry. Basic methods for implementation of practical noise thermometers that use conventional electronic signal-processors are surveyed. Applications of noise thermometry in temperature scale metrology and process temperature instrumentation are described. Some conclusions and future prospects for Johnson noise thermometry are derived from the surveyed work.
