Applications of the picoammeter in physics labs
The picoammeter is used where currents are far too small for a galvanometer or microammeter to register, such as the tiny currents in photoelectric, electrostatic and insulation experiments carried out in senior-secondary and undergraduate laboratories.
- Measuring photocurrents in photoelectric effect experiments
- Detecting very small leakage currents through insulators
- Measuring currents in electrostatics and charge-transfer demonstrations
- Measuring small currents in high-voltage set-ups within its input rating
- Undergraduate modern physics practicals
