Fiber lasers for frequency standards in optical communications

Author(s)
Nathan R. Newbury, William C. Swann, Ian R. Coddington, Paul A. Williams
Optical light with millihertz relative frequency stabilities and subfemtosecond timing jitter can be produced from stabilized cw or mode-locked fiber lasers. We

Characterization of the Latent Image to Developed Image in Model EUV Photoresists

Author(s)
John T. Woodward IV, Kwang-Woo Choi, Vivek Prabhu, Shuhui Kang, Kristopher Lavery, Wen-Li Wu, Michael Leeson, Anuja De Silva, Nelson Felix, Christopher K. Ober
Current extreme ultraviolet (EUV) photoresist materials do not yet meet exposure-dose sensitivity, line-width roughness, and resolution requirements. In order

JKR Adhesion Testing Between Biologically Relevant Surfaces

Author(s)
Adam J. Nolte, Heqing Huang, Christopher Stafford
In this work we report recent observations obtained using an adhesion testing device that utilizes the contact mechanics theory of Johnson, Kendall, and Roberts

A Quantum Network Manager That Supports A One-Time Pad Stream

Author(s)
Alan Mink, Lijun Ma, Anastase Nakassis, Haolang Xu, Oliver T. Slattery, Barry J. Hershman, Xiao Tang
We have begun to expand the NIST quantum key distribution (QKD) system into a quantum network to support secure cryptography. We are starting with a simple

Quantum key distribution at GHz transmission rates

Author(s)
Alessandro Restelli, Joshua C. Bienfang, Alan Mink, Charles W. Clark
Quantum key distribution (QKD) channels are typically realized by transmitting and detecting single photons, and therefore suffer from dramatic reductions in

Recent Advances in Fire-Structure Analysis
