Ac-dc transfer difference due to thermoelectric effects in a thermal
converter was evaluated using a NbN/TiN/NbN Josephson junction array
as an ultra-stable Fast-Reversed DC (FRDC) source. The Josephson junction
array was connected in parallel with a conventional semiconductor
FRDC current source, as an "add-on" voltage-stabilizer for
the input of the thermal converter. The ac-dc difference due to thermoelectric
effects was evaluated with standard measurement (type-A) uncertainty
of the order of 0.01μV/V, four-times better than that for the conventional
semiconductor FRDC source.
