Scalable arrays of doped silicon RF Paul traps

Author(s)
Joseph W. Britton, Dietrich G. Leibfried, James A. Beall, Brad R. Blakestad, Janus H. Wesenberg, David J. Wineland
We report techniques for the fabrication of multi-zone linear RF Paul traps which exploit the machinability and electrical conductivity of bulk doped silicon

Magnetic Noise in a Low-Power Picotesla Magnetoresistive Sensor

Author(s)
Stephen E. Russek, Lu Yuan, Sean Halloran, Fabio C. da Silva, David P. Pappas, John M. Moreland, Sy-hwang Liou, Rui Zhang
We present a design of a low power, compact, magnetoresistive sensor. The key features of the design are(1) decreasing the noise by the use of a 64 element

Effects of sample preparation on bacterial colonization of polymers

Author(s)
Diana N. Zeiger, Christopher Stafford, Yajun Cheng, Stefan D. Leigh, Sheng Lin-Gibson, Nancy Lin
Characterization of materials developed for medical usage frequently includes studies in which the materials are inoculated with bacteria in order to assess

Interferometry with a photon-number resolving detector

Author(s)
Aaron Pearlman, Christoph Wildfeuer, Jun Chen, Jingyun Fan, Alan L. Migdall, Jonathan Dowling
With photon-number resolving detectors, we show compression of interference fringes with in- creasing photon numbers for a Fabry-P erot interferometer. This

Temperature dependence of spin-torque-driven self-oscillators

Author(s)
William H. Rippard, Matthew R. Pufall, Thomas Cecil, Thomas J. Silva, Stephen E. Russek, M. L. Schneider
We have measured the temperature dependence of spin-torque-driven self-oscillations in point-contact nanooscillators for both in-plane and out-of-plane applied

Open Issues in Secure DNS Deployment

Author(s)
Ramaswamy Chandramouli, Scott W. Rose
This paper describes some practical administrative issues and challenges in the deployment of DNSSEC - an IETF specified suite of security measures for securing

An experiment for the precision measurement of the radiative decay mode of the neutron

Author(s)
R Cooper, Christopher D. Bass, E Beise, H Breuer, Jim Byrne, T E. Chupp, Kevin Coakley, Maynard S. Dewey, B Fisher, Changbo Fu, Thomas R. Gentile, M. McGonagle, Hans Pieter Mumm, Jeffrey S. Nico, Alan Keith Thompson, F E. Wietfeldt
The neutron typically beta decays into a proton, electron, and antineutrino. In some decays, it can be accompanied by a high energy photon. We recently

Dietary Supplement Standard Reference Materials

Author(s)
Lane C. Sander, Karen W. Phinney, Michele M. Schantz, Katherine E. Sharpless, Stephen A. Wise
In 1994, the U.S. Congress enacted the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act to "protect the right of access of consumers to safe dietary supplements". In

Fitting Spheres to Range Data from 3D Imaging Systems

Author(s)
Marek Franaszek, Geraldine S. Cheok, Kamel S. Saidi, Christoph J. Witzgall
Two error functions used for nonlinear Least Squares (LS) fitting of spheres to range data from 3D imaging systems are discussed: orthogonal error function and
