| Title: |
Manufacturing: Precision Engineering; Metrology of Small Holes |
| Description: |
NIST researchers and collaborators have developed a new method for measuring the interior dimensions of small holes with an uncertainty of only 35 nanometers. Here, a glass probe is inserted into an optical "ferrule," a device for connecting optical fibers used in communications systems.
