31. Development of a Seebeck Coefficient Standard Reference Material (SRM)™
Topic: Energy
Published: 8/1/2011
Authors: Nathan Lowhorn, Winnie K Wong-Ng, John Lu, Joshua Brooks Martin, Martin L Green, John E Bonevich, Evan L. Thomas, Neil Dilley, Jeff Sharp
Abstract: We have successfully developed a Seebeck coefficient Standard Reference Material (SRM™), Bi2Te3, that is essential for interlaboratory data comparison and for instrument calibration. Certification measurements were performed using a differential stea ...

32. The Effect of Folding on the Mechanical Properties and Internal Structures of Fibers Used in Ballistic Applications
Topic: Energy
Published: 7/18/2011
Authors: Haruki Kobayashi, Walter G McDonough, Hae-Jeong Lee, Jae Hyun Kim, Amanda Lattam Forster, Kirk D Rice, Gale Antrus Holmes
Abstract: The failure of a first responder’s soft body armor (SBA) composed of poly (p-phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) fibers has prompted researchers to assess the long-term durability and effectiveness of current and future SBA products. Based on existing d ...

33. Imaging of nanoscale charge transport in bulk heterojunction solar cells
Topic: Energy
Published: 6/17/2011
Authors: Behrang H Hamadani, Nadine Emily Gergel-Hackett, Paul M Haney, Nikolai B Zhitenev
Abstract: We have studied the local charge transport properties of organic bulk heterojunction solar cells based on the blends of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) with a photoconductive atomic force microscope (PCAF ...

35. The Effect of Folding on the Internal Structure of Ballistic Fibers
Topic: Energy
Published: 5/26/2011
Authors: Haruki Kobayashi, Walter G McDonough, Hae-Jeong Lee, Jae Hyun Kim, Amanda Lattam Forster, Kirk D Rice, Gale Antrus Holmes
Abstract: In one of our previous studies, the mechanical properties of poly (p-phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) fibers were degraded when the fibers were folded. When we examined poly (p-phenylene terephthalamide) (PPTA) fibers, we did not find a similar drop ...

39. An electronic measurement of the Boltzmann constant
Topic: Energy
Published: 3/30/2011
Authors: Samuel Paul Benz, Alessio Pollarolo, Jifeng Qu, Horst Rogalla, Chiharu Urano, Weston Leo Tew, Paul David Dresselhaus, D. R White
Abstract: The Boltzmann constant was measured by comparing the Johnson noise of a resistor at the triple point of water with a quantum-based voltage reference signal generated with a superconducting Josephson-junction waveform synthesizer. The measured value ...

40. LABORATORY ACCELERATED AND NATURAL WEATHERING OF STYRENE-ETHYLENE-BUTADIENE-STYRENE (SEBS) BLOCK COPOLYMER: ACCELERATION AND CORRELATION
Topic: Energy
Published: 3/23/2011
Authors: Kar Tean Tan, Christopher C White, David J. Benatti, Deborah L Stanley, Donald Lee Hunston
Abstract: Indoor accelerated and outdoor field weathering of styrene-ethylene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer have been studied by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. In the indoor accelerated experiments, specimens are exposed to ultraviolet-vis ...
