Synthetic lubricants are widely used for applications that require high-thermal and oxidative stability. In order to facilitate new designs and applications for these fluids we are measuring a suite of thermophysical and transport properties for lubricant

Attaching and integrating electrochemically-active molecules to a variety of different surfaces is of importance for applications in catalysis, memory devices, and molecular electronics. With the increasing demand for personal electronics, growth in Flash

We usemoving-window two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (MW-2DCOS) for phase-specific Raman analysis of the n-alkane (C21H44) duringmelting from the crystalline solid phase to the intermediate rotator phase and to the amorphousmolten phase. In MW

Experiments in atomic, molecular, and optical (AMO) physics rely on lasers at many different wave- lengths and with varying requirements on spectral linewidth, power and intensity stability. Vertical external-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VECSELs), when

We study the crystal symmetry properties of few-layer 1T' MoTe2 using the polarization dependence of the second harmonic generation (SHG) and Raman scattering. Bulk 1T' MoTe2 is know to be inversion symmetric, however, we nd that the inversion symmetry is

A new class of DSCs using the hemicage cobalt based mediator [Co(ttb)] 2+/3+ using the hexadentate ligand 5,5'',5''''-((2,4,6- triethyl highly preorganized benzene-1,3,5-triyl)tris(ethane-2,1- diyl))tri-2,2'- bipyridine (ttb) were studied. Current-voltage
Photoacoustic spectroscopy measurements of flame-generated soot aerosol coated with small amounts of water yielded absorption enhancements that were dependent on the laser used: quasi- continuous wave (Q-CW, ≈ 650 ps pulse duration and 78 MHz repetition

We describe the design and demonstrate performance of an instrument capable of simultaneous Raman spectroscopy, rheology, and optical microscopy of materials. The instrument couples a Raman microscope with a rotational rheometer through an optically
Broadband coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (BCARS) microspectroscopy is a unique label-free imaging modality that provides detailed chemical information at each pixel. In minutes, this technique captures a hyperspectral cube that co-registers
The eye-safe transmitter of a ground-based, integrated path differential absorption (IPDA) LIDAR (light detection and ranging) system is described and specified in detail. The transmitter is based on an actively stabilized, continuous-wave, single
The annellation theory method has been used to predict the locations of maximum absorbance (LMA) of the ultravioletvisible (UV-Vis) spectral bands in the group of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) C24H14 (dibenzo and naphtho)derivatives of

This paper presents an explanation based on torsionally mediated proton-spinoverall-rotation interaction for the observation of doublet hyperfine splittings in some Lamb-dip sub-millimeter-wave transitions between ground-state torsion-rotation states of E

Optical absorption spectra of laboratory generated aerosols consisting of black carbon (BC) internally mixed with nonabsorbing materials (ammonium sulfate, AS, and sodium chloride, NaCl) and BC with a weakly absorbing brown carbon surrogate derived from
