Polarization of Bi2Te3 Thin Film in a Floating-Gate Capacitor Structure

Author(s)
Hui H. Yuan, Kai Zhang, Haitao Li, Hao Zhu, John E. Bonevich, Helmut Baumgart, Curt A. Richter, Qiliang Li
Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor capacitors with Bi2Te3 thin film sandwiched and embedded inside the oxide layer have been fabricated and studied. The capacitors

Winnie K. Wong-Ng, Yonggao Yan, Makoto Otani, Joshua B. Martin, Kevin R. Talley, Sara C. Barron, David L. Carroll, C Hewitt, Howard Joress, Evans L. Thomas, Martin L. Green, Xinfeng Tang
A suite of complementary high-throughput screening systems for combinatorial films was developed at NIST to facilitate the search for efficient thermoelectric

Kinetic Polymer Arrest in Percolated SWNT Networks

Author(s)
Rana NMN Ashkar, Mansour Abdul Baki, Madhu Sudan Tyagi, Antonio Faraone, Paul Butler, Ramanan Krishnamoorti
The inclusion of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) in a polymer, with interchain distances comparable to the SWNT diameter, can significantly perturb the

Quantum Critical Fluctuations in the Heavy Fermion compound Ce(Ni^s0.935^Pd0.065)2Ge2

Author(s)
C. H. Wang, L. Poudel, A. E. Taylor, J .M. Lawrence, A. D. Christianson, Sung Chang, Jose Rodriguez Rivera, Jeffrey W. Lynn, A. A. Podlesnyak, G. Ehlers, R. E. Baumbach, E. D. Bauer, K. Gofryk, F. Ronning, K. J. McClellan, J. D. Thompson
Inelastic neutron scattering experiments were performed on a single crystal of the heavy Fermion compound Ce(Ni 0.935Pd 0.065) 2Ge 2 in order to study the spin

New Methods for Measurement of Neutron Detector Efficiency up to 20 MeV

Author(s)
Fred B. Bateman, Allan D. Carlson, N. A. Kornilov, S M. Grimes, T N. Massey, C E. Brient, D E. Carter, J E. O'Donnell, R. C. Haight, N Boukharouba
A new approach to neutron detector effciency has been taken. A neutron detector has been calibrated with a Cf-252 source at low energy. The calibration was

Multi-Scale Investigation of the Performance of Limestone in Concrete

Author(s)
Dale P. Bentz, Ahmad Ardani, Tim Barrett, Scott Z. Jones, Didier Lootens, Max A. Peltz, Taijiro Sato, Paul E. Stutzman, Jussara Tanesi, Jason Weiss
Limestone (calcium carbonate) has long been a critical component of concrete, whether as the primary raw material for cement production, a fine powder added to
