Book Description
Excerpt from Measurements on the Thermal Expansion of Fused Silica The vertical position wires are illuminated by 10-watt mazda frosted spherical lamp bul'os. Resistances in the lamp circuit are used to reduce the illumination to a satisfactory intensity. By placing parallel spider lines in the reticle of the microscope to caliper the position wires. An excellent arrangement for high-precision measurements is secured. The air furnace in Figure 2 has external control rheostats for each side and end of the heating chamber. The external heat loss from these rheostats is reduced by using a transformer for the lower temperature tests. With all furnaces it is essential that the horizontal condition of the specimen shall not change during the test. A further precaution. For the bath furnace requires that the readings be made at a known distance above the end of the specimen and that the exact ratio of distances - level of observation to upper support of wires and end of specimens to upper support of wires - be known and maintained. Specimens which have a tendency to warp on heating can be placed in a glass tube or between plates. Tests on such specimens are not considered to be satisfactory. The change in length of materials incident to the heat treatment of the test is recorded as the difference between the room temperature observations before and after the test. Verification of this change is afforded by readings of a micrometer caliper used to secure the length of the specimen before mounting in, and after removal from, the furnace. This value is often of importance in verifying an imperfect annealing of the specimen or establishing the percentage growth or shrinkage due to chemical changes.

Book Description
In 1901 the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) was founded to provide standard weights and measures and to be the national physical laboratory for the United States of America. The NBS conducted a lot of research in the fields of science and technology which were reported as "Scientific Papers." In 1988 the NBS became what we know now; the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). This is one of those documents written by employees of the NBS.

Book Description
We have measured length change vs time for several low thermal expansion materials maintained in evacuated environments at constant temperature (near 300 K). Materials were two types of fused silica, Cer-Vit, ULE, Zerodur, Invar, and Super Invar. Delta L/L was measured over a period of 170 days to a precision of two to three parts in 10(exp5). In addition, we have measured time dependent changes in optical contact interfaces and have placed an upper limit on drift of optical phase shift on reflection from multilayer dielectric coatings.
