The structure and magnetic properties of magnetite (Fe 3O 4) nanoparticles synthesized by a solvothermal processing route are investigated. The nanoparticles...
The emergence of wireless communications technology has led to an increasing interest in sensors that are free from wiring constraints that increase the cost of...
Estradiol is the most potent natural estrogen and is derived from the ovaries. Its concentration in blood is measured to determine ovarian function. A reference...
Standard data formats are generally employed because they save time and money by promoting interoperability, i.e., facilitating data exchange and preserving...
The rising interest in lead-free solders creates a need for complete property data on the various lead-free solder compositions. Circuit designers need these...

Discrepancies between phase shifting interferometry and white-light interferometry have been observed in step height and surface roughness measurements. The...
There are quantum algorithms that can efficiently simulate quantum physics, factor large numbers and estimate integrals. As a result, quantum computers can...
This study proposes a mechanism of guaranteed quality of recovery (GQoR) for Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) mesh networks. Four GQoR levels are used to...
We have implemented a quantum key distribution (QKD) system with polarization encoding at 850 nm over 1 km of optical fiber. The high-speed management of the...
The National Software Reference Library (NSRL) of the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) collects software from various sources and...
A desire to increase automation or to eliminate the use of mercury has prompted several ASTM committees to consider alternatives to ASTM Liquid-in-Glass (LiG)...
A simplified method for the preparation of particles from liquid suspensions has been developed. Particles are deposited directly on carbon planchets for rapid...

We have calculated dynamic susceptibility of patterned cobalt and Permalloy pillars with a diameter of 50 nm and different pillar heights using micromagnetic...
Phase field models of solidification have been extended to include grain boundaries, using a variety of techniques. A model developed by Kobayashi et. al cite}...
We have implemented a quantum key distribution (QKD) system with polarization encoding at 850 nm over 1 km of optical fiber. The high-speed management of the...
