National Measurement Institute

National Institute of Standards and Technology laboratory in Boulder: What exactly do they do up there?

“The establishment of the National Measurement Institute of the Philippines is a decisive step toward a modern, innovation-driven economy.” In this afternoon’s Committee on Science and Technology meeting, Bohol’s Second District Congresswoman Van-van Cadorna Aumentado urged her fellow lawmakers to approve House Bill No. 2802, an act establishing the National Measurement Institute of the Philippines. For many years, the Philippines has relied on foreign institutions for its measurements—critical

As the semiconductor industry continues to miniaturize chip components—essential for computers, implantable drug dispensers, cell phones, and other devices—the demand for ever-more detailed information from Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images has grown. Although the exquisite, atomic-scale resolution of an SEM can’t be improved, researchers at NIST have begun a multi-year study to reduce uncertainties in the measurements inferred from SEM images. To do so, NIST physicist John Villarrubia a
