Experimental Bounds on Classical Random Field Theories

Author(s)
Joffrey K. Peters, Sergey Polyakov, Jingyun Fan, Alan Migdall
Alternative theories to quantum mechanics motivate important fundamental tests of our understanding and description of the smallest physical systems. Here we...

Microwave Determination of the Volume of a Pressure Vessel

Author(s)
Michael R. Moldover, James W. Schmidt, Keith A. Gillis, James B. Mehl, John D. Wright
Using microwave techniques that are scalable to very large volumes, we measured the interior volume of a 0.3 m 3, commercially-manufactured, pressure vessel...

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...

Improvements to NIST’s Air Speed Calibration Service

Author(s)
Iosif I. Shinder, Michael R. Moldover, Christopher J. Crowley, Bernard J. Filla
We discuss five significant improvements to the Air Speed Calibration Service conducted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST): 1. Reduced...

Toward a New Evaluation of the Neutron Standards

Author(s)
Allan D. Carlson, V G. Pronyaev, R. Capote, G M. Hale, F. J. Hambsch, T Kawano, S. Kunieda, R O. Nelson, D. Neudecker, P Schillebeeckx, S Simakov, D L. Smith, X Talou, A Wallner, W Wang
A new version of the ENDF/B library has been planned. The first step in producing this new library is evaluating the neutron standards. An evaluation is now...

High Throughput Screening Tools for Thermoelectric Materials

Author(s)
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...
