Gain Calibration of Current-to-Voltage Converters

November 19, 2018
Author(s)
Thomas C. Larason, Carl C. Miller
Current-to-voltage converters are used in many photometric and radiometric applications. The calibration of current- to-voltage converters at a few input currents is not always sufficient to understand the linearity and the bias of a device. Many devices

Innovative Approaches to Combat Healthcare-Associated Infections Using Efficacy Standards Developed Through Industry and Federal Collaboration

October 5, 2018

Dianne L. Poster, Carl C. Miller, Yaw S. Obeng, Michael T. Postek, Troy E. Cowan, Richard A. Martinello
Nation-wide, healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) infect one in every 25 hospital patients, account for more than 100,000 deaths and increase medical costs by around $96-147B, each year. Ultraviolet-C (UV-C) antimicrobial devices are shown to reduce the

Core-Shell p-i-n GaN Nanowire LEDs by N-polar Selective Area Growth

September 11, 2018
Author(s)
Matthew D. Brubaker, Kristen L. Genter, Bryan T. Spann, Alexana Roshko, Paul T. Blanchard, Todd E. Harvey, Kristine A. Bertness
GaN nanowire LEDs with radial p-i-n junctions were grown by molecular beam epitaxy using N- polar selective area growth on Si(111) substrates. The N-polar selective area growth process facilitated the growth of isolated and high-aspect-ratio n-type NW

MEMS non-absorbing electromagnetic power sensor employing the effect of radiation pressure

September 8, 2018
Author(s)
Ivan Ryger, Aly Artusio-Glimpse, Paul A. Williams, Gordon A. Shaw, Matt Simons, Christopher L. Holloway, John H. Lehman
We demonstrate a compact electromagnetic power sensor based on force effects of electromagnetic radiation onto a highly reflective mirror surface. Unlike the conventional power measurement approach, the photons are not absorbed and can be further used in

Improving dielectric nanoresonator array coatings for solar cells

June 19, 2018
Author(s)
Dongheon Ha, Nikolai B. Zhitenev
We introduce single layer silicon dioxide (SiO2) nanosphere arrays as antireflection coatings (ARCs) on a gallium arsenide (GaAs) solar cell. We make macro- and nanoscale experiments and finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) calculations to prove the

Paper in electronic and optoelectronic devices

March 6, 2018
Author(s)
Dongheon Ha, Zhiqiang Fang, Nikolai B. Zhitenev
The demand for lightweight, cost-effective, and/or flexible electronic and optoelectronic devices drives research toward new materials advancing the desired functionality or reducing manufacturing costs. Paper, being in addition an earth abundant and

Rydberg Atom Electric-Field Metrology

November 28, 2017
Author(s)
Joshua A. Gordon, Christopher L. Holloway, Matthew T. Simons
We present a technique which shows great promise for realizing an atomic standard measurement of RF fields that is intrinsically calibrated, directly linked to the SI and atomic structural constants. This technique relies on the reponse of Rydberg atoms to
