A convenient measure of surface sensitivity in Auger-electron spectroscopy (AES) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is the mean escape depth (MED). If...
The reliability of gate oxides is becoming more of a concern as oxide thickness is scaled below 5 nm to achieve satisfactory circuit performance in advanced...
Complex topological features such as rectangular voids and step inclusions that were seen in secondary electron micrographs of Co films grown on Cu(100) at room...

We have trapped 40K in a vapor-cell magneto-optical trap starting from a natural abundance sample. This rare, weakly radioactive atom is a Fermion. The number...
The emission spectra of vibrationally excited hydroxyl radical products formed in the ractions of alkyl radicals with O( 3P) atoms are detected using a laser...
We have measured the radiative lifetimes for the 2S 2 2P 2P3/2 level of Ar 13+ and the 3s 23p 2 3P 2 level of Kr 22+. These measurements were performed by...

The 6H form of BaTiO 3 forms an extensive solid solution with barium iron oxide, having the general formula BaTi 1-X-yFe 3+ xFe 4+ yO 3-δ, δ=x/2, where the Feu3...
Distortions in the timebases of equivalent-time oscilloscopes and digitizers cause distortions of waveforms sampled by them. This paper reports on a comparison...
