The primary cryogenic temperature sensor, thermometer, under consideration is called a “quantum-correlation thermometer” because it compares temperaturedependent thermomechanical noise with temperature-independent quantum noise. This allows it to be a primary, or “self-calibrating”, noise thermometer. This concept has only been demonstrated down to 10 K, and hasn’t been compared with international temperature scale standards. The Project results may find application in any quantum R&D performed below 1 K, and lead towards commercial development of a quantum-correlation thermometer. Success of the Project could lead to a follow-up project with one or more Canadian SMEs and a path towards commercialization., description french : Thermométrie primaire quantique, expected results english : In the short term, anticipated outcomes will be strengthened collaborations across industry, academia, and government to support research excellence. In the medium term, anticipated outcomes will be the development of new and potentially disruptive technologies with collaborators. In the long term, find collaborative solutions to public policy challenges and create stronger innovation systems., expected results french : À court terme, les résultats prévus seront des collaborations renforcées entre l'industrie, le milieu universitaire et le gouvernement pour soutenir l'excellence en recherche. À moyen terme, les résultats attendus seront le développement de nouvelles technologies potentiellement perturbatrices avec des collaborateurs. À long terme, trouver des solutions collaboratives aux défis des politiques publiques et créer des systèmes d'innovation plus solides., additional information english : This agreement has been amended 1 time(s).
