The precision in spectroscopy of any quantum system is fundamentally limited by the Heisenberg uncertainty relation for energy and time. For N systems, this...
A single-electron transistor is used to detect tunneling of single electrons into self-assembled InGaAs quantum dots. Aluminum single-electron transistors (SETs...

A 340-element array of microhotplates is used to characterize the chemical vapor deposition growth of carbon nanotubes and nanofibers under a variety of process...
Recent publications have used the impact of area change coupled with conservation of adsorbed catalyst to quantify the superfill effect of bottom-up feature...
Airborne particles are implicated in morbidity and mortality of certain high-risk subpopulations. Exposure to particles occurs mostly indoors, where a main...
