Bottom-up Gold Filling of High Aspect Ratio Trenches

June 19, 2019
Author(s)
Stephen J. Ambrozik, Thomas P. Moffat, Daniel Josell, Chen Zhang, Houxian Miao
This work demonstrates bottom-up superconformal Au filling of trenches as tall as seventeen micrometers. Deposition is conducted in a near-neutral Na3Au(SO3)2 + Na2SO3 electrolyte containing a micromolar concentration of Bi3+, known to accelerate the Au

Electron Doping BaZrO 3 via Topochemical Reduction

June 19, 2019
Author(s)
Thomas Orvis, Mythili Surendran, Yang Liu, Shanyuan Niu, Shinichiro Muramoto, Alexander Grutter, Jayakanth Ravichandran
We report the topochemical reduction of epitaxial thin films of the cubic perovskite BaZrO 3. Reduction with calcium hydride yields n-type conductivity in the films, despite the wide bandgap and low electron affinity of the parent material. X-ray

Measuring & Predicting Crystal Morphology in Fused Deposition Modeling

June 19, 2019
Author(s)
Claire McIlroy, Jonathan Seppala, Anthony Kotula
Semi-crystalline polymer melts are commonly used in fused deposition modeling. Although flows have a profound effect on polymer crystallization, the relationship between typical fused deposition modeling (FDM) deformation rates and printed-part crystal

Polymer Additive Manufacturing: Confronting Complexity

June 19, 2019
Author(s)
Anthony P. Kotula, Jonathan E. Seppala, Chad R. Snyder
Since its development and commercialization in the 1980s, polymer additive manufacturing (AM) has become a disruptive technology. In this chapter we describe the ever-increasing demands for polymer AM in industry, academia, and government, as well as the

Position- and Polarization-Specific Waveguiding of Multi-Emissions in Single ZnO Nanorods

June 19, 2019
Author(s)
Bonghwan Chon, Johnson Truong, Matthew Hansen, Jong-in Hahm, Young Jong Lee
We examine multiphoton-produced optical signals waveguided through single ZnO nanorods (NRs) using a newly developed, scanning offset-emission hyper- spectral microscopy (SOHM) technique. Specifically, we concurrently analyze waveguiding behaviors of sum

Pre-Fire and Post-Fire Data Studies in the WUI

June 19, 2019
Author(s)
Eric D. Link
Pre-Fire and Post-Fire Data Studies in the WUI are a systematic effort to document and understand the fire and ember exposure, and consequential damage, from a wildland fire which burned into a developed area. The purpose of such studies is to provide a

Attribute Considerations for Access Control Systems

June 18, 2019
Author(s)
Chung Tong Hu, David F. Ferraiolo, David Kuhn
Attribute-based access control systems rely upon attributes to not only define access control policy rules but also enforce the access control. Attributes need to be established, issued, stored, and managed under an authority. Attributes shared across

Estimating real-time infiltration for use in residential ventilation control

June 18, 2019
Author(s)
Lisa Ng, Stephen M. Zimmerman, Jeremy Good, Brian Tool, Steven Emmerich, Andrew Persily
Minimum outdoor air ventilation rates specified in standards such as ASHRAE Standard 62.2 are generally based on envelope airtightness, building floor area, geographical location, and number of occupants. To meet ventilation requirements in practice

Reducing Localization Error of Vision-Guided Industrial Robots

June 18, 2019
Author(s)
Marek Franaszek, Geraldine S. Cheok, Jeremy A. Marvel
In many manufacturing applications, such as automated drilling or inspection of large parts, accurate knowledge of both position and orientation is critical. In this paper, a method for reducing robot end-effector position and orientation error is

Spin Stripe Order in a Square Planar Trilayer Nickelate

June 18, 2019
