A Half Century of Cryogenics and CSA

Author(s)
Ray Radebaugh
1964 seems just like yesterday to me, yet it was 50 years ago. The Cryogenic Society of America (CSA) was born that year, and I was just beginning my

Comparison of thin epitaxial film silicon photovoltaics fabricated on monocrystalline and polycrystalline seed layers on glass

Author(s)
C W. Teplin, Sachit Grover, Adrian Chitu, Alexander Limanov, Monical Chalal, James Im, Daniel Amkreutz, Stefan Gall, Heayoung Yoon, Vincenzo Lasalvia, H M. Branz, Paul Stradins, Kim M. Jones, Andrew G. Norman, David L. Young, Benjamin Lee
We fabricate thin epitaxial c-Si solar cells on display glass and fused silica substrates overcoated with a Si seed layer. We achieve an open circuit voltage

Topological physics with light

Author(s)
Jacob M. Taylor, Mohammad Hafezi
Electrons in a so-called topological insulator circulate around the material’s boundary without ever straying into the bulk. Uncharged photons can be induced to

Measuring the Neutron Lifetime Using Magnetically Trapped Neutrons

Author(s)
Hans P. Mumm, Alan Keith Thompson, Paul R. Huffman, Christopher O'Shaughnessy, Kevin J. Coakley, Robert Golub, John M. Doyle, Steve K. Lamoreaux, P.-N. Seo, C E. Mattoni, S N. Dzhosyuk, L Yang, Grace L. Yang, Karl W. Schelhammer, Christopher M. Swank
The neutron beta-decay lifetime plays an important role, both in understanding weak interactions within the framework of the Standard Model, and in theoretical

First Accuracy Evaluation of NIST-F2

Author(s)
Thomas P. Heavner, Steven R. Jefferts, Jon H. Shirley, Thomas E. Parker, Elizabeth A. Donley, Neil Ashby, Stephan E. Barlow, Filippo Levi, Giovanni Costanzo
We report the first accuracy evaluation of NIST-F2, a second generation laser-cooled Cesium fountain primary standard developed at NIST with a cryogenic (Liquid

A Two-Port Model for Antennas in an Arbitrary Environment

Author(s)
Jason B. Coder, John M. Ladbury, Mark Golkowski
We present an improved model for characterizing fundamental antenna parameters based on the concept of a passive realizable two-port network. The proposed model

Trends in QconCATs for targeted proteomics

Author(s)
Junjun J. Chen, Illarion Turko
Targeted proteomics has received much attention because of the highly-sensitive, quantitative detection of proteins and post-translational modifications (PTMs)

Development of Fiber Fabrey-Perot Interferometers as stable near-infrared calibration sources for high resolution spectrographs

Author(s)
Samuel Halverson, Suvrath Mahadevan, Lawrence W. Ramsey, Fred Hearty, John C. Wilson , Jon Holtzman, Stephen L. Redman, Gillian Nave, David Nidever, Matthew Nelson, Nick Venditti, Dmitry Bizyaev , Scott Fleming
We discuss the ongoing development of single-mode ber Fabry-Perot(FFP)Interferometers as precise astrophotonic calibration sources for high precision radial

Tearing and scrolling of transferred graphene

Author(s)
Guangjun Cheng, Brent A. Sperling, James E. Maslar, Curt A. Richter, Angela R. Hight Walker
We present an investigation on tearing and scrolling of the transferred graphene on a Si/SiO2 substrate. Graphene grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is

Confinement-Driven Increase in Ionomer Thin-Film Modulus

Author(s)
Kirt A. Page, Ahmet Kusoglu, Christopher M. Stafford, Sangcheol Kim, Regis J. Kline, Adam Weber
Ion-conductive polymers, or ionomers, are critical materials for a wide range of electrochemical technologies. For optimizing the complex, heterogeneous

Time-resolved double-slit interference pattern measurement with entangled photons

Author(s)
Lynden K. Shalm, Thomas Jennewein, Kevin Resch, Piotr Kolenderski, Carmelo Scarcella, Kelsey D. Johnsen Johnsen, Deny Hamel, Cahterine Holloway, Simone Tisa, Alberto Tosi
The double-slit experiment strikingly demonstrates the wave-particle duality of quantum objects. In this famous experiment, particles pass one-by-one through a

Coordinate-space approach to vacuum polarization

Author(s)
Peter J. Mohr, P Indelicatio, J. Sapirstein
The vacuum-polarization correction for bound electrons or muons is examined. The objective is to formulate a framework for calculating the correction from bound

Direct generation of three-photon polarization entanglement

Author(s)
Deny Hamel, Krister Shalm, Hannes Hubel, Aaron J. Miller, Francesco F. Marsili, Varun Verma, Richard Mirin, Sae Woo Nam, Kevin Resch, Thomas Jennewein
Non-classical states of light are of fundamental importance for emerging quantum technologies. All optics experiments producing multi-qubit entangled states

Quantum Algorithms for Fermionic Quantum Field Theories

Author(s)
Stephen P. Jordan, Keith S. Lee, John Preskill
Extending previous work on scalar field theories, we develop a quantum algorithm to compute relativistic scattering amplitudes in fermionic field theories
