By measuring the long-term charge offset drift in single electron tunneling transistors, we have observed a transient relaxation after fabrication which is
The introduction of the internal resistance of a voltage source is a very effective method for analyzing the electromagnetic characteristics of antennas and

We present characterization of energetics of the reaction between nickel and silicon thin films using differential scanning nano-calorimetry (nano-DSC). For the
We report a simple strategy to control the pressure-driven flow rates from fluid reservoirs to a microchip in an efficient and compact fashion. We demonstrate
The future Smart Grid will be a transformation of the current electric grid. The key enablers for this transformation will be dynamic rates and the ability for
In recent work, a model for the structural environment of Hg bound to a catalytic DNA sensor was proposed on the basis of EXAFS data analysis. Although severely

The Institute for Reference Materials and Measurements (IRMM) of the Joint Research Centre (JRC), a Directorate-General of the European Commission, operates the
We show how a quantum walk can be experimentally realized for a single trapped ion and how to interpolate between the quantum and random walk by randomizing the
Viscoelastic relaxation processes factor into polymer performance and stability throughout an application lifetime. These relaxations are controlled by the
For a decade the femtosecond laser based frequency comb has played a key role in high precision optical frequency metrology.While often referred to as a precise
