We present results for detection of X-rays by large area avalanche photodiodes (APDs) in strong magnetic fields and at cryogenic temperatures. Whereas at room...
Sharp magnetic switching distributions with coupling to magnetic sidewall oxides in FeCoB/MgO magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) are revealed by magneto...
This paper gives an overview of measurement techniques used in the THz region of the electromagnetic spectrum, from about 100 GHz to several THz. Currently...

We have measured the relaxation time of a thermally unstable ferromagnetic nanoparticle incorporated into a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) as a function of...
Phenytoin (PHT), phenobarbital (PHB), lamotrigine (LTG), and topiramate (TPM) are some of the most widely used antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). Monitoring of their...
The analysis of complex fluids such as fuels poses significant challenges arising primarily from the multiplicity of components, the different properties of the...
