A variety of uniaxial test machines are available in the NIST Center for Automotive Lightweighting. These include servo-hydraulic and screw-driven test frames
The Near Edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (NEXAFS) experimental stations uses a tunable, focused monochromatic beam of soft X-rays (0.1 keV to 2.2 keV) to
The Netzsch STA 449 F1 Jupiter Simultaneous Thermal Analyzer features a temperature range of 150 °C to 1000 °C. For a given sample, this unit can simultaneously
The most commonly used detector at the NIST imaging beamlines is a lens coupled camera detector box shown in Figure 1. The spatial resolution and field-of-view
Summary The NIST Neutron Imaging Facility provides users with a unique “plug and play” approach to imaging operating fuel cells, electrolyzers, and lithium-ion
The Neutron Interferometry and Optics Facilities (NIOFs) are the World's premier facilities for neutron interferometry and related optical measurements. Neutron
We currently use a high resolution (0.1 cm -1) Nicolet Nexus 670 that is flexible in both its current iteration and is upgradeable for future needs. The optics
This instrument is primarily designed and optimised to produce Langmuir-Blodgett films on solid substrates, but could also be used to investigate monolayer
The Emberometer ( video) is a camera-based system designed to study the motion of embers as they move through the air. It uses a technique called 3D Particle
The NIST Gasification Apparatus was originally designed and built at EL in the late 1990s to expose solid or liquid samples to a uniform heat flux in a non
The NIST gonio-spectroradiometer is used to measure total spectral radiant flux (TSRF) of incandescent lamps. The instrument consists of a 3-axis scanning
Vibrationally-Resonant Sum Frequency Spectroscopy (VR-SFS): A nonlinear vibrational spectroscopy in which two colors of light, one in the visible and one in the
Summary The Normal incidence Diffuse Optical Scatter Instrument (NDOSI) is a new facility for measuring the hemispherical reflectance and transmittance of
The NIST Open-Source Wireless Testbed supports research on 5G and next generation networks. The testbed focus is on the deployment of open-source Radio Access
