This approach, commonly referred to as Doppler broadening thermometry, has benefited across the years from substantial improvements, of both technical and fundamental nature, eventually reaching an accuracy of about 10 ppm on the temperature determination in the best cases. This is sufficient for Doppler broadening thermometry to play a significant role in the practical realization of the new kelvin, which follows the 2019’s redefinition from a fixed value of the Boltzmann constant, and to tackle the challenge, among others, to quantify and possibly fix systematic uncertainties of the international temperature scale of 1990. This paper reviews and comparatively analyzes methods and results achieved so far in the field of laser-based primary thermometry, also including spectroscopic approaches that leverage the temperature-dependent distribution of line intensities and related absorbances across the rovibrational band of a molecular sample. Although at an early stage of development, these approaches show a promising degree of robustness with respect to the choice of the line-shape model adopted for the fitting of the absorption spectra, which is a delicate aspect for all laser-based thermometers. We conclude by identifying possible technical and scientific evolution axes of the current scenario.","PeriodicalId":16783,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physical and Chemical Reference Data","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47886180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The former include a decrease in the uncertainty of the dimensionless fine-structure constant and a nearly two orders of magnitude improvement of particle masses expressed in units of kg due to the transition to the revised International System of Units (SI) with an exact value for the Planck constant. Further, because the elementary charge, Boltzmann constant, and Avogadro constant also have exact values in the revised SI, many other constants are either exact or have significantly reduced uncertainties.

Altogether, 195 carefully selected rovibrational transitions are probed. The ultrahigh sensitivity of NICE-OHMS permits the observation of lines with room-temperature absorption intensities as low as 10−27 cm molecule−1, while the superb resolution enables the detection of a doublet with a separation of only 286(17) kHz. While the NICE-OHMS experiments are performed in the near-infrared window of 7000–7350 cm−1, the lines observed allow the determination of all the pure rotational energies of H218O corresponding to J values up to 8, where J is the total rotational quantum number. Both network and quantum theory have been employed to facilitate the measurement campaign and the full exploitation of the lines resolved. For example, to minimize the experimental effort, the transitions targeted for observation were selected via the spectroscopic-network-assisted precision spectroscopy (SNAPS) scheme built upon the extended Ritz principle, the theory of spectroscopic networks, and an underlying dataset of quantum chemical origin. To ensure the overall connection of the ultraprecise rovibrational lines for both nuclear-spin isomers of H218O, the NICE-OHMS transitions are augmented with six accurate microwave lines taken from the literature. To produce absolute ortho-H218O energies, the lowest ortho energy is determined to be 23.754 904 61(19) cm−1. A reference, benchmark-quality line list of 1546 transitions, deduced from the ultrahigh-accuracy energy values determined in this study, provides calibration standards for future high-resolution spectroscopic experiments between 0–1250 and 5900–8380 cm−1.","PeriodicalId":16783,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physical and Chemical Reference Data","volume":"50 1","pages":"023106"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1063/5.0052744","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43744928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Special attention was paid not only to accurately reproduce the available experimental data but also to correct extrapolation. Therefore, this equation can be used for application in mixture models. For the development of the present equation of state, the available literature data were supplemented with new experimental speed-of-sound measurements, which were conducted in the temperature range from 293.2 K to 353.2 K with pressures up to 20 MPa.
