Structure and Magnetocaloric Properties of the Fe-Doped HoTiGe Alloy

Author(s)
Virgil Provenzano, B Baumgold, Robert D. Shull, Alexander J. Shapiro, Keiichi Koyama, Kazuo Watanabe, N K. Singh, K G. Suresh, A K. Nigam, S K. Malik
The structure and magnetocaloric properties of the Fe-doped HoTiGe compound were investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive...

Hot-wire chemical vapor synthesis for a variety of nano-materials with novel aplications

Author(s)
Anne Dillon, A. H. Mahan, Rohit Deshpande, J. L. Alleman, Jeffrey Blackburn, P. A. Parillia, M. J. Heben, Chaiwat Engtrakul, K.E.H. Gilbert, Kevin M. Jones, Bobby To, S Lee, John H. Lehman
Hot-wire chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD) has been demonstrated as a simple economically scalable technique for the synthesis of a variety of nano-materials in...

Controlling Polar Molecules in Optical Lattices

Author(s)
Svetlana A. Kotochigova, Eite Tiesinga
We determine conditions for effective quantum control over internal and external degrees of freedom of polar alkali-metal molecules in optical lattices. We show...

Electronic Effects in Length Distribution of Atom Chains

Author(s)
Jason Crain, Mark D. Stiles, Joseph A. Stroscio, Daniel T. Pierce
Gold deposited on Si(553) leads to self assembly of atomic chains, which are broken into finite segments by atomic defects. Scanning tunneling microscopy is...

Suppression of Orange-Peel Coupling in Magnetic Tunnel Junctions by Preoxidation

Author(s)
William F. Egelhoff Jr., Robert McMichael, Cindi L. Dennis, Mark D. Stiles, Alexander J. Shapiro, Brian B. Maranville, Cedric J. Powell
We have found that preoxidation of the bottom Co electrode in magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) very effectively suppresses orange-peel coupling. The result is a...

Optimization of Transition-Edge Calorimeter Performance

Author(s)
Joel N. Ullom, James A. Beall, William B. Doriese, William Duncan, S. L. Ferreira, Gene C. Hilton, Kent D. Irwin, Galen C. O'Neil, Carl D. Reintsema, Leila R. Vale, Barry L. Zink
Calorimeters that exploit the superconducting-to-normal transition are used to detect individual photons from near-infrared to γ-ray wavelengths. Across this...

Confirmation of Interstellar Methycyanodiacetylene (CH3C5N)

Author(s)
Lewis E. Snyder, J M. Hollis, P R. Jewell, Francis J. Lovas, A J. Remijan
Ten spectral lines of the symmetric-top molecule methylcyanodiacetylene (CH3C5N) have been detected with the 100 m Green Bank Telescope (GBT) toward the Taurus...

Simultaneous Grain Boundary Migration and Grain Rotation

Author(s)
M Upmanyu, David J. Srolovitz, A E. Lobkovsky, James A. Warren, W Carter
The energy of a polycrystalline network can be reduced by both grain boundary migration and by grain rotation. We perform a series of molecular dynamics (MD)...

Texture Measurements in Fiber-Oriented PMN-PT

Author(s)
Kristen H. Brosnan, G L. Messing, Richard J. Meyer, Mark D. Vaudin
Textured (1-x)(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3 (PMN-PT) ceramics obtained by the templated grain growth (TGG) process a significant fraction of the piezoelectric...

Method for Measuring the Raman Gain Tensor in Optical Fiber

Author(s)
Idan Mandelbaum, M Bolshtyansky, T F. Heinz, Angela R. Hight Walker
In this paper we introduce a technique to measure the tensor properties of the Raman gain in a short piece (10m) of silica based polarization maintaining...

Performance of Electret Ionization Chambers in Magnetic Field

Author(s)
P Kotrappa, L R. Stieff, Timothy F. Mengers, Robert McMichael, Robert D. Shull
Electret Ionization Chambers (EIC) are widely used for measuring radon and radiation. The radiation measured includes alpha, beta and gamma radiation. These...
