Deep reinforcement learning assisted energy harvesting wireless networks

May 24, 2021
Author(s)
Junliang Ye, Hamid Gharavi
Heterogeneous ultra-dense networking (HUDN) with energy harvesting technology is a promising approach to deal with the ever-growing traffic that can severely impact the power consumption of small-cell networks. Unfortunately, the amount of harvested energy

Observation of chiral photocurrent transport in the quantum Hall regime in graphene

May 24, 2021
Author(s)
Glenn S. Solomon, Olivier Gazzano, Bin Cao, Jiuning Hu, David B. Newell, Tobias Huber, Michael Gullans, Mohammad Hafezi, Tobias Grass
Optical excitation provides a powerful tool to investigate non-equilibrium physics in quantum Hall systems. Moreover, the length scale associated with photo-excited charge carries lies between that of local probes and global transport measurements. Here

Temporal Exemplar Channels in High-Multipath Environments

May 24, 2021
Author(s)
Mohamed Hany, Peter Vouras, Rob Jones, Rick Candell, Kate Remley
Industrial wireless plays a crucial role in cyber-physical system (CPS) advances for the future vision of smart manufacturing. However, industrial wireless environments are different from each other and are different from home and office environments

Workshop Report: Challenges for Digital Proximity Detection in Pandemics: Privacy, Accuracy, and Impact

May 24, 2021
Author(s)
Michelle Stephens, Gregory (Greg) C. Cala, Kristen K. Greene, Katy Keenan, Angela Robinson, Donald Ufford, Zachary Valdez, Lu Shi
NIST held a three-day workshop, "Challenges for Digital Proximity Detection in Pandemics: Privacy, Accuracy, and Impact" Jan. 26th – 28th, 2021. Members of industry, academia, non-profits, state, and federal government were brought together to discuss

Dynamic light scattering distributions by any means

May 21, 2021
Author(s)
Natalia Farkas, John A. Kramar
Dynamic light scattering (DLS) is an essential technique for nanoparticle size analysis and has been employed extensively for decades, but despite its long history and popularity, the choice of weighting and mean of the size distribution often appears to

TREC 2020 News Track Overview

May 21, 2021
Author(s)
Ian Soboroff, Shudong Huang, Donna Harman
The News track focuses on information retrieval in the service of help- ing people read the news. In 2018, in cooperation with the Washington Post1, we released a new collection of nearly 600,000 news articles, and crafted two tasks related to how news is

Buried Structure in Block Copolymer Films Revealed by Soft X-ray Reflectivity

May 20, 2021
Author(s)
Daniel Sunday, Jacob L. Thelen, R Joseph Kline, Chun Zhou, Jiaxing Ren, Paul Nealey
Interactions between polymers and surfaces can be used to influence properties including mechanical performance in nanocomposites, the glass transition temperature, and the orientation of thin film block copolymers (BCPs). In this work we investigate how

Combining secondary ion mass spectrometry image depth profiling and single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry to investigate the uptake and biodistribution of gold nanoparticles in Caenorhabditis elegans

May 20, 2021
Author(s)
Monique Johnson, Joe Bennett, Antonio Montoro Bustos, Shannon Hanna, Andrei Kolmakov, Nicholas Sharp, Elijah Petersen, Christopher Sims, Bryant C. Nelson, Patricia Lapasset
Analytical techniques capable of determining the spatial distribution and quantity (mass and/or particle number) of engineered nanomaterials in organisms are essential for characterizing nano-bio interactions and for nanomaterial risk assessments. Here, we

Gauss Hypergeometric Representations of the Ferrers Function of the Second Kind

May 20, 2021
Author(s)
Howard Cohl, Hans Volkmer, Justin Park
We derive all eighteen Gauss hypergeometric representations for the Ferrers function of the second kind, each with a different argument. They are obtained from the eighteen hypergeometric representations of the associated Legendre function of the second

Multiplatform Standards and Guidelines Publishing at NIST

May 20, 2021
Author(s)
Kathryn Miller
The National Institute of Standards and Technology is a nonregulatory agency of the U.S. Department of Commerce. One of the agency's responsibilities is to develop industry standards and guidelines, which are published as NIST Technical Series publications

Phase-resolved electrical detection of coherently coupled magnonic devices

May 20, 2021
Author(s)
Yi Li, Chenbo Zhao, Vivek P. Amin, Zhizhi Zhang, Michael Vogel, Yuzan Xiong, Joseph Sklenar, Ralu Divan, John Pearson, Wei Zhang, Mark D. Stiles, Axel Hoffmann, Valentine Novosad
We demonstrate the electrical detection of a strongly coupled magnon-magnon hybrid system based on yttrium iron garnet/permalloy (YIG/Py) bilayer devices. Direct microwave current injection through the conductive Py layer drives the hybrid dynamics

The mutation spectrum shapes the spectrum of adaptive substitutions

May 20, 2021
Author(s)
Alejandro Cano, Hana Rozhonova, Arlin B. Stoltzfus, David McCandlish, Joshua Payne
Evolutionary adaptation can be conceived as a series of substitutions representing mutation-fixation events. The changes that are more likely will appear more frequently in the aggregate spectrum of adaptive substitutions. Recent studies establish that

A Collaborative Robot Work-Cell Testbed for Industrial Wireless Communications

May 19, 2021
Author(s)
Yongkang Liu, Mohamed Hany, Karl Montgomery, Rick Candell
We propose a new testbed for assessing the performance of wireless techniques in support of industrial operations. We developed a collaborative robot work-cell manufacturing scenario as the emulated cyber-physical system (CPS) model. Specifically, data

Coherence and decoherence in the Harper-Hofstadter model

May 19, 2021
Author(s)
Ian Spielman, Qiyu Liang, Dimi Trypogeorgos, Ana Valdes-Curiel, Junheng Tao, Mingshu Zhao
We quantum simulated the 2D Harper-Hofstadter (HH) lattice model in a highly elongated tube geometry—three sites in circumference—using an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. In addition to the usual transverse (out-of-plane) magnetic flux, piercing the
