By cleverly manipulating two properties of a neutron beam, NIST scientists and their collaborators have created a powerful probe of materials that have complex
GAITHERSBURG, Md. — The U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) held a ribbon-cutting ceremony yesterday to unveil a
By using light waves instead of electric current to transmit data, photonic chips—circuits for light—have advanced fundamental research in many areas from
The purpose of this human subjects study is to collect high-quality measurements of the reflectance spectrum of human skin and assess the variability across the
The most commonly used cell-based assays for measuring cytotoxicity often show poor reproducibility, require 24 h to complete, and rely on a nonspecific
The Quantitative MRI project develops calibration structures (phantoms) and validates quantitative imaging protocols for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
