We present the results of an IR study of the effect of temperature on the formation of Au-monolayer-Si molecular junctions by using a flip-chip lamination approach. Carboxylic acid-terminated alkanethiols self-assembled on ultrasmooth gold substrate have
Formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded tissue specimens for histopathology are cut to 3-20 μm thickness to allow transmission of light, and optimize tissue morphology. Tissue is stabilized by formalin fixation followed by impregnation with wax in nonpolar
A single, closed three-state -system in room-temperature rubidium is investigated experimentally using a copropagating beam parallel-polarization configuration under weakly driven electromagnetically induced transparency EITcondition. Compare with the

Using both a cavity and a broadband microwave spectrometers, the microwave spectrum of the sugar alcohol 1,3-propanediol (CH2OHCH2CH2OH) has been measured over the frequency range 6.7 GHz to 25.4 GHz. Two conformers of 1,3-propanediol have been assigned

A new program is described for fitting rotation-torsion energy levels in the molecules like toluene, in which the frame (C6H5) has C2v symmetry and the methyl top has C3v symmetry, i.e., for molecules where the internal rotation barrier is expanded in

Alternating multi-layer and 1:1 blended films of zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc)and buckminsterfullerene (C60) were investigated as model active layers for solar cells by Time-Resolved Terahertz Spectroscopy (TRTS). Relative photon-to-carrier efficiencies 2
Spectrum simulation is a useful practical and pedagogical tool. Particularly with complex samples or trace constituents, a simulation can help to understand the limits of the technique and how to optimize the tools for the optimal measurement. DTSA-II

Observed rotational-vibrational transitions of HI dimer in the geared bending mode, centered at 511.9 GHz, are reported. This 50 kHz high resolution spectrum was recorded using a co-axially configured pulsed jet submillimeter spectrometer and the hyperfine

The first measurement of hydrogen-like vanadium x-ray Lyman alpha transitions has been made. The measurement was made on an absolute scale, fully independent of atomic structure calculations. Sufficient signal was obtained to reduce the statistical

The effective use of gas chromatographic retention data presented in the form of reten¬tion indices (RI) requires the development of a compre¬hensive structure-based digital archive of retention parameters. Development of such an archive includes the

The microwave spectrum of the sugar alcohol 1,2-propanediol (CH3CHOHCH2OH) has been measured over the frequency range 6.5 GHz to 25.0 GHz with several pulsed-beam Fourier-transform microwave spectrometers. Seven conformers of 1,2-propanediol have been

To predict the vibrational spectra of molecules, ab initio calculations are often used to compute harmonic frequencies, which are usually scaled by empirical factors as an approximate correction for errors in the force constants and for anharmonic effects
We present a systematical investigation, both analytical and numerical, on the dynamics of two nearly lossless and distortion-free weak nonlinear optical pulses in a cold, lifetime-broadened four-state double-Λ system via electromagnetically induced

The use of organic molecules to impart electrical surface properties has been a subject of intense research not only from a fundamental perspective but for many technological applications. In particular, organic molecules have been proposed as active

We report a direct observation of the D line doublet of sodium-like ions with Z≥72. Spectra in the 1 nm to 9 nm spectral range are presented showing the widely split doublet for Hf61+, Ta62+, W63+,and Au68+. The ions were produced and confined in an

A system for sensing magnetic fields is proposed, composed of an array of passive microfabricated alkali atom sensor heads coupled to a control unit using only optical interconnects. The optical coupling can be achieved by either free-space transmission of

A glancing incidence interferometric test for large x-ray mirror mandrels, using two computer generated holograms (CGH s), is described. The two CGH s are used to form a double pass glancing incidence system. One layout of the CGH-cavity glancing incidence

In this communication, we report that oxidation of the Ag nanoparticle (Ag NP) surface under ambient conditions has a dramatic effect on the adsorption and SERS detection limit of nitroaromatic molecules in aqueous solutions. We show for the first time
We give a survey of information needed for quantitative surface analyses by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). We describe four terms (the inelastic mean free path, the effective attenuation length, the mean escape depth, and the information depth)
We present low uncertainty measurements of line parameters for fifteen rotation-vibration transitions of water vapor in the wave number range 7170.27 cm^(-1) to 7183.02 cm^(-1). These experiments incorporated frequency-stabilized cavity ring-down

Standard Reference Material (SRM) 2940 is a cuvette-shaped, Mn-ion-doped glass, recommended for use for relative spectral correction of emission and day-to-day performance validation of steady-state fluorescence spectrometers. Properties of this standard
A commercial spectrometer with an integrating sphere (IS) detector was used to measure the absorbance of scattering and absorbing suspensions. Analysis of the measurement process showed that two measurements of the absorbance, one with the cuvette placed
