Phase Field Theory of Heterogeneous Crystal Nucleation

Author(s)
L Granasy, T Pusztai, D M. Saylor, James A. Warren
A phase field approach is developed to model wetting and heterogeneous crystal nucleation of an undercooled pure liquid in contact with a sharp wall. We discuss

Charge Offset Stability in Tunable-Barrier Si SET Devices

Author(s)
Neil M. Zimmerman, Brian Simonds, Mikio Fujiwara, Yukinori Ono, Yasuo Takahashi, Hiroshi Inokawa
The problem of charge offset drift in single-electron tunneling devices, based on the Coulomb blockade, can preclude their useful application in metrology and

Synthesis and Structural Characterization of Glucopyranosylamide Films on Gold

Author(s)
Mridula Kadalbajoo, J J. Park, A Opdahl, Hiromi Suda, Kitchens A. C, Jayne C. Garno, J Batteas, Michael J. Tarlov, Phillip DeShong
Stereoselective synthesis of a- and b-linked glucopyranosylamide derivatives via the in situ generation of glucosyl isoxazolines has been performed utilizing a

A Measurement of Propagation Delay

Author(s)
Donald R. Larson, Nicholas Paulter
A measurement method and associated uncertainty analysis have been developed for the measurement of propagation or group delay in electrical transmission lines

Biaxial Stress Dependence of AlxGa1-xAs Photoluminescence

Author(s)
Grady S. White, Albert J. Paul, Kristine A. Bertness, Lawrence H. Robins
A study was conducted of the room temperature photoluminescence behavior of AlxGa1-xAs as a function of tensile, equi-biaxial stress for x = 0, 0.198, 0.36, 0

Long distance decoy state quantum key distribution in optical fiber

Author(s)
Danna Rosenberg, Jim A. Harrington, Patrick R. Rice, Philip A. Hiskett, Charles G. Peterson, Richard J. Hughes, Jane E. Nordholt, Adriana Lita, Sae Woo Nam
The theoretical existence of photon-number-splitting attacks creates a security loophole for most quantum key distribution (QKD) demonstrations that use a

On the Vickers Indentation Fracture Toughness Test

Author(s)
George D. Quinn, Richard Bradt
The Vickers indentation fracture toughness test or VIF is addressed by considering its origins and the numerous equations that have been applied along with the
