The New International System of Units (SI): Quantum Metrology and Quantum Standards – eBook

The International System of Units, the SI, provides the basis for all measurements in science, economics, engineering, and society. The SI has been fundamentally revised in 2019. The new SI is a universal and highly stable unit system based on invariable constants of nature. Its implementation lies on quantum metrology and quantum standards, which base measurements on the manipulation and counting of single quantum objects, such as electrons, ions, photons, and flux quanta. The New International System of Units (SI): Quantum Metrology and Quantum Standards, (PDF), explains and illustrates the new SI, its impact on measurements, and the quantum metrology and quantum technology behind it.

The ebook is based on the book “Quantum Metrology: Foundation of Units and Measurements” by the same authors.
