Abstract
We demonstrated the precise measurement of a 20-V programmable Josephson voltage standard (PJVS) system with an accuracy of 10-9. A 20-V PJVS chip including 524288 NbN/TiNx/NbN Josephson junctions (JJs) was used and operated in a cryocooler. By optimizing a microwave frequency, the widest current margin of a voltage step greater than 1 mA was obtained at 15.85 GHz. The maximum voltage of 17 V was also obtained at 18.00 GHz although we could not obtain voltages exceeding 20 V due to defective JJs. We also successfully compared the PJVS system with a 10-V Zener diode with an accuracy of 10-8.
