Non-nulling Protocols for Fast, Accurate, 3-D Velocity Measurements in Stacks

July 28, 2023
Author(s)
Iosif Isaakovich Shinder, Aaron Johnson, James Filla, Vladimir B. Khromchenko, Michael R. Moldover, Joey Boyd, John D. Wright, John R. Stoup
We present protocols for making fast, accurate, 3-D velocity measurements in the stacks of coal-fired power plants. The measurements are traceable to internationally-recognized standards; therefore, they provide a rigorous basis for measuring and/or

Operando photoelectron spectromicroscopy of nanodevices: Correlating the surface chemistry and transport in SnO2 nanowire chemiresistors

June 29, 2023
Author(s)
Andrei Kolmakov, Trey Diulus, Kurt D. Benkstein, Stephen Semancik, Majid Kazemian, Matteo Amati, Maya Kiskinova, Luca Gregoratti
With size reduction of active elements in microelectronics to tens of nanometers and below, the effect of surface and interface properties on overall device performance becomes crucial. High resolution spectroscopic and imaging techniques provide a

Laser tracker interim testing per the ASME B89.4.19-2021 and ISO 10360-10:2021 standards

June 28, 2023
Author(s)
Marcos Motta de Souza, Bala Muralikrishnan, Vincent Lee, Daniel S. Sawyer
The recently revised ASME B89.4.19-2021 and ISO 10360-10:2021 standards for laser trackers include a new interim test that is comprehensive and more sensitive to systematic errors than the interim tests in the previous versions of the standards, i.e., the

Zane Comden, John-Edward Draganov, Stephan Schlamminger, Frank Seifert, Charles Waduwarage Perera, David B. Newell, Leon Chao
The United States National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has been developing a new device for primary standard realization of torque utilizing established trace- ability to the quantum-electrical International System of Units (SI) standards

In Vivo Quantitative MRI T1 and T2 Measurements of the Human Brain at 0.064 T

May 20, 2023
Author(s)
Kalina Jordanova, Michele Martin, Stephen Ogier, Megan Poorman, Katy Keenan
Object : Tissue relaxation of the brain is measured in vivo at 0.064 T. This work contributes to research efforts targeted at measuring quantitative magnetic resonance imaging properties of the human body at lower field strengths, thereby increasing the

Nonlinear Networks for Arbitrary Optical Synthesis

May 19, 2023
Author(s)
Jennifer Black, Zachary Newman, Su-Peng Yu, David Carlson, Scott Papp
Nonlinear wavelength conversion is a powerful control of light, especially when implemented at the nanoscale with integrated photonics. However, strict energy conservation and phase-matching requirements constrain the converted output. To overcome these

Environmental Effects and Control Systems for GPS Disciplined Clocks (GPSDC)

May 15, 2023
Author(s)
Andrew Novick, Demetrios Matsakis, John Clark
GPSDCs are sensitive to their environment in many ways, and the susceptibility varies with different GPSDC designs. In the short term, temperature shocks can perturb the frequency of the disciplined local oscillator, causing shifts in the time output

Reflective deep-ultraviolet Fourier ptychographic microscopy for nanoscale imaging

April 29, 2023
Author(s)
Kwanseob Park, Yoon Sung Bae, Sang-Soo Choi, Martin Sohn
Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM) that has high space-bandwidth-product and phase imaging capability requires significant resolution enhancement in reflection mode for imaging of nanoscale semiconductor devices. A direct way to nanoscale resolution is
