Standard Reference Materials for Analysis of Dietary Supplements

June 1, 2010
Author(s)
Katherine E. Sharpless, David L. Duewer
NIST, in collaboration with the National Institutes of Health Office of Dietary Supplements (NIH-ODS) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is producing Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) for dietary supplements. This paper describes the how these

Third-Order Intermodulation Distortion due to Self-heating in Gold Coplanar Waveguides

May 23, 2010
Author(s)
Eduard Rocas, Juan C. Collado Gomez, Nathan D. Orloff, James C. Booth
We present measurements and modeling of a self-heating mechanism responsible for third order intermodulation distortion in coplanar waveguide transmission lines. Temperature fluctuations, at the envelope frequency of the input signal, induce dynamic

Thermal Decomposition of RP-2 with Stabilizing Additives

May 7, 2010
Author(s)
Jason A. Widegren, Thomas J. Bruno
The thermal decomposition of RP-2 and mixtures of RP-2 with four different additives has been investigated. The mixtures with RP-2 contained one of the following: 5 % /trans/-decahydronaphthalene (decalin); 5 % 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene (tetralin); 5 %

Dual frequency-comb sampling of a quasi-thermal incoherent light source

May 1, 2010
Author(s)
Fabrizio R. Giorgetta, Ian R. Coddington, William C. Swann, Esther Baumann, Nathan R. Newbury
Dual, coherent frequency combs are used to measure the spectrum of an incoherent, quasi-thermal source through Fourier spectroscopy. The source spectrum is acquired over 1THz bandwidth with an absolute frequency accuracy set by the combs.

Metrology of Molecular Devices made by Flip Chip Lamination

April 30, 2010
Author(s)
Christina A. Hacker, Mariona Coll Bau, Curt A. Richter
Scaling of conventional electronics has continued unabated to dimensions approaching fundamental physical limits. As technology continues to evolve there are increasing demands to identify alternate routes of performing electrical functions. One potential

Modifications to the NIST Reference Measurement Procedure (RMP) for the Determination of Serum Glucose by Isotope Dilution Gas Chromatography/ Mass Spectrometry

April 27, 2010
Author(s)
Jocelyn L. Prendergast, Lorna T. Sniegoski, Michael J. Welch, Karen W. Phinney
NIST has been providing a Standard Reference Material (SRM) for glucose in human serum for many years to support accuracy in health care measurements. The definitive method (DM), now known as the reference measurement procedure (RMP), for the analysis of

CCQMK62: Nutrients in Infant/Adult Formula Vitamins

April 24, 2010
Author(s)
Katherine E. Sharpless, Catherine A. Rimmer, Karen W. Phinney, Bryant C. Nelson, David L. Duewer, Stephen A. Wise
Key Comparison CCQM-K62 was designed to enable demonstration of the equivalence in capabilities for measurement of vitamins in a food matrix. A milk-based fortified human infant/adult formula was selected as the matrix based upon material availability and

The A 2E" - X 2A2' Transition of NO 3 Trapped in Solid Neon

April 7, 2010
Author(s)
Marilyn E. Jacox, Warren E. Thompson
NO3 has been stabilized in a neon matrix at 4.3 K in sufficient yield for detection of the absorptions between 7000 and 10000 cm-1 which arise from vibronically allowed transitions from its ground state to levels of the A 2E" state. The results confirm and

Raman spectroscopic observation of dehydrogenation in ball-milled LiNH2-LiBH4-MgH2 nanoparticles

April 3, 2010
Author(s)
Jason Hattrick-Simpers, Chun Chiu, James E. Maslar, Leonid A. Bendersky, Michael E. Niemann, Sesha S. Srinivasan, Elias K. Stefanakos
In situ Raman spectroscopy was used to monitor the dehydrogenation of ball-milled mixtures of LiNH2 LiBH4 MgH2 nanoparticles. The as-milled powders were found to contain a mixture of Li4BN3H10 and Mg(NH2)2, with no evidence of residual LiNH2 or LiBH4. It
