Foam-based optical absorber for high-power laser radiometry

Author(s)
Krishna Ramadurai, Christopher L. Cromer, Xiaoyu X. Li, Roop Mahajan, John H. Lehman
We report damage threshold measurement results for novel absorbers comprised of either liquid-cooled silicon carbide or vitreous carbon foams. The measurements...

Multilayers for Next Generation X-Ray Sources

Author(s)
Sasa Bajt, H N. Chapman, E Spiller, S Hau-Riege, J Alameda, A J. Nelson, C C. Walton, B Kjornrattanawanich, Andrew Aquila, Charles Tarrio, Steven Grantham
Multilayers are artificially layered structures that can be used to create optics and optical elements for a broad range of x-ray wavelengths, or can be...

Evaluation of a Capacitance Scaling System

Author(s)
Svetlana Avramov-Zamurovic, Andrew D. Koffman, Bryan C. Waltrip, Yicheng Wang
A capacitance scaling system from 10 nF to 100 mF [1], [2] has been implemented at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Standard four...

Sub-Doppler Laser Cooling and Magnetic Trapping of Erbium

Author(s)
Andrew J. Berglund, Simone Lee, Jabez J. McClelland
We investigate cooling mechanisms in magneto-optically and magnetically trapped erbium. We find efficient sub-Doppler cooling in our trap, which can persist...

Developing an Interpretability Scale for Motion Imagery

Author(s)
J Irvine, A Aviles, D Cannon, Charles D. Fenimore, Donna Haverkamp, S Israel, G O'Brien, John W. Roberts
The motion imagery community would benefit from the availability of standard measures for assessing image interpretability. The National Imagery...

Fluorescence during Doppler cooling of a single trapped atom

Author(s)
Janus Wesenberg, Dietrich G. Leibfried, Brad R. Blakestad, Joseph W. Britton, Ryan Epstein, Jonathan Home, Wayne M. Itano, John D. Jost, Emanuel H. Knill, C. Langer, R. Ozeri, Signe Seidelin, David J. Wineland
We investigate the temporal dynamics of Doppler cooling of a single trapped atom in the weak binding regime using a semi-classical model. We develop an...
