Vibrating Reed Electrometer for Accurate Measurement of Electrical Currents …
We have developed a home-built vibrating reed (VR) electrometer. The heart of the meter is a VR capacitor, which excels in a stable and low input leakage current of only 8 aA with a 2 aA noise for ...
What is an Electrometer?
The combination of the two pieces creates a capacitor. When the distance between the two electrodes is altered, the electrical charge is forced in and out of the capacitor. The vibrating reed electrometer is highly useful in that the size of the instrument can be constructed at a very small level. Another type of electrometer uses a vacuum tube.

General Physics II
Electrostatic energy associated with an electric field can be stored in a capacitor. The storage of such energy requires that one has to do work to move charges from one plate in the capacitor to the other. The charge, . Q., on the plates and the voltage, . V., between …
6.1.2: Capacitance and Capacitors
A special sort of voltmeter, an electrostatic voltmeter or electrometer, is needed for these types of measurements. These are sometimes referred to as non-charge transfer meters. ... The current through a capacitor is equal to the capacitance times the rate of change of the capacitor voltage with respect to time (i.e., its slope). That is, the ...
Capacitance and the Principle of Parallel Plate Capacitors
A capacitor stores opposite charges on two conductors, for example two opposite metal plates, leading to a potential difference (voltage drop) between the two conductors. ... (electrometer) to monitor the voltage between the plates as the distance is increased. The voltage change will also be monitored with a dielectric material, such as a ...

Charge the capacitor with a known voltage V, not higher than 100V (the limit of the electrometer). 3. Remove the charged capacitor from the power supply used to charge it, being careful not to ground it in any way, so as not to remove the charge. 4. Connect the charged capacitor across the electrometer input leads.
