Rapid DNA Maturity Assessment

Author(s)
Erica L. Romsos, Sanae Lembirick, Peter Vallone
Two fully integrated rapid DNA platforms were tested as a part of a rapid DNA maturity assessment in the fall of 2014. The assessment was conducted with sets of...

Direct Immersion Annealing of Thin Block Copolymer Films

Author(s)
Jack F. Douglas, Alamgir Karim, Arvind Arvind Modi1, Sarang Bhaway, Bryan D. Vogt, Abdullah Al-Enizi, Ahmed Elzatahry, Ashutosh Sharma
We demonstrate that direct immersion annealing (DIA) greatly enhances the rate at which block copolymer (BCP) films order into stable morphologies when the BCP...

Optomechanical Raman-Ratio Thermometry

Author(s)
Katarina Cicak, Thomas P. Purdy, Pen Li Yu, Nir Kampel, Bob Peterson, Raymond Simmonds, Cindy Regal
The temperature dependence of the asymmetry between Stokes and anti-Stokes Raman scattering can be exploited for self-calibrating, optically-based thermometry...

Prospects for atomic clocks based on large ion crystals.

Author(s)
John J. Bollinger, Kyle Arnold, Elnur Haciyev, Chern Hui Lee, Eduardo Paez, M. D. Barrett
We investigate the feasibility of precision frequency metrology with large ion crystals. For clock candidates with a negative differential static polarisability...

Optomechanical reference accelerometer
