Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

The results of studies aimed at creating a complex of high-precision hardware instruments for reproduction and transmission of the unit of length are described. The composition of the complex is described. The creation of the complex is intended to increase the scientific and technological level of the Russian Federation and support the uniformity of measurements of length. The complex will become the foundation for the further development of the standards base of the Russian Federation in the field of measurements of length and will make it possible to perform reproduction of the unit of length at two wavelengths, 633 and 532 nm, as well as measure the wavelength of laser sources of radiation in a vacuum in the range 500–1050 nm.
