New Collaboration Methods for Laboratory Liaisons

Author(s)
Nancy Allmang, Mylene S. Ouimette, Lea Wade
Three years ago the Information Services Division of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) initiated a library-laboratory liaison program...

Wrinkling of Ultrathin Polymer Films

Author(s)
Rui Huang, Christopher Stafford, B D. Vogt
This paper presents a bilayer model to account for surface effects on the wrinkling of ultrathin polymer films. Assuming a surface layer of finite thickness...

Josephson Junction Materials Research Using Phase Qubits

Author(s)
Raymond Simmonds, Dustin P. Hite, Robert McDermott, Matthias Steffen, Ken B. Cooper, Kristine Lang, John M. Martinis, David P. Pappas
At present, the performance of superconducting qubits is limited by decoherence. Strong decoherence of phase qubits is associated with spurious microwave...

Herding Hash Functions and the Nostradamus Attack

Author(s)
John M. Kelsey, Tadayoshi Kohno
In this paper, we develop a new attack on Damgaard-Merkle hash functions, called the herding attack, in which an attacker who can find many collisions on the...

Temperature dependence of quantum dot homogeneous linewidth

Author(s)
Joseph J. Berry, Martin Stevens, Richard Mirin, Kevin L. Silverman
We examine the temperature dependence of the ground state homogeneous linewidth in InGaAs/GaAs quantum dots. Measurements are performed on quantum dots in a...

Selecting Effective Test Sets

Author(s)
Leonard E. Gebase, Robert D. Snelick, Roch Bertucat
One of the first problems that must be addressed when attempting to test the reliability of any software implementation is determining what is to be tested. The...

Optical and microwave frequency synthesis with an integrated fiber frequency comb

Author(s)
L Hartl, Martin E. Fermann, W Swann, John J. McFerran, Ian R. Coddington, Qudsia Quraishi, Scott A. Diddams, Nathan R. Newbury, Carston Langrock, M M. Fejer, P. S. Westbrook, Jeffrey W. Nicholson, K Feder
We demonstrate optical coherence over a broad spectral range of two independent fiber frequency combs. Additionally, we demonstrate microwave stability of...

Recent Advances in Solid-State Single Photon Detectors

Author(s)
Danna Rosenberg, Sae Woo Nam, Richard Mirin, Philip A. Hiskett, Jane E. Nordholt
This paper reviews recent advances in the detection of single photons at visible and near-infrared wavelengths, focusing on detectors based on superconducting...

Fluid Dispensing and Dispersion

Author(s)
Jiann C. Yang, David R. Keyser
This paper is a condensed version of a chapter in the forthcoming Next Generation Program (NGP) final report edited by the authors. It summarizes the research...
