The final day of the IMEKO World Congress 2024 took place on 29 August 2024. In his closing keynote lecture at the Hamburg event, Professor Klitzing spoke about one of the most important milestones in metrology, the discovery that led to the modern rendition of the International System of Units: the quantum Hall effect, which he discovered in 1980, made the 1-kilogram standard of weight measurement retireable in practice.
After the lecture, the professor visited the drawing robot of HUN-REN SZTAKI - see our video here! HUN-REN SZTAKI was at the exhibition all week, we wrote about the first day here, the second day here and the third day here.
