Implementation of a 1 GO star-mesh graphene quantum Hall array resistance standard network for high resistance calibration

July 3, 2025
Author(s)
Dean Jarrett, Albert Rigosi, Yanfei Yang, Alireza Panna, David Newell, Ngoc Thanh Mai Tran, Wei-Chen Lin, Marta Musso, Cheng-Hsueh Yang, Chi-Te Liang, Massimo Ortolano, Randolph Elmquist
A 1 GΩ star-mesh quantized Hall array resistance standard (QHARS) made of thirty-seven quantum Hall effect (QHE) elements was fabricated and tested. The 1 GΩ QHARS has three orders of magnitude fewer QHE elements than a largely series 1 GΩ QHARS, which

Analyzing Collusion Threats in the Semiconductor Supply Chain

June 30, 2025
Author(s)
Sanjay Rekhi
In this work, we propose a comprehensive framework to analyze threats related to semiconductor supply chain. The framework introduces a metric which quantifies the severity of different threats subjected to a collusion of adversaries from different stages

Impact of Ni-like metastable states and hyperfine quenching on charge state distribution in an EBIT

June 30, 2025
Author(s)
Chowdhury Abrar Faiyaz, Endre Takacs, Timothy Burke, FNU Dipti, Galen O'Neil, Adam Hosier, Hunter Staiger, Joseph Tan, Yuri Ralchenko
We show the effects of ladder ionization and hyperfine quenching on charge state distributions and spectral features of ions in electron beam ion trap (EBIT) devices. Ladder ionization with intermediate excitation of metastable states proceeds at lower

Guidelines for API Protection for Cloud-Native Systems

June 27, 2025
Author(s)
Ramaswamy Chandramouli, Zack Butcher
Modern enterprise IT systems rely on a family of application programming interfaces (APIs) for integration to support organizational business processes. Hence, a secure deployment of APIs is critical for overall enterprise security. This, in turn, requires

2024 NIST GenAI (Pilot Study): Text-to-Text Evaluation Overview and Results

June 25, 2025
Author(s)
Hariharan Iyer, Seungmin Seo, Lukas Diduch, Kay Peterson, George Awad, Yooyoung Lee
The 2024 NIST Generative AI (GenAI) Pilot Study focuses on evaluating text-to-text (T2T) generation and discrimination tasks to assess the capabilities and limitations of generative AI models and AI detectors. The study aims to measure the effectiveness of

Dynamical structure factor from weak measurements

June 25, 2025
Author(s)
Emine Altuntas, Rosaria Gabriella Lena, Stuart Flannigan, Ian Spielman, Andrew Daley
Much of our knowledge of quantum systems is encapsulated in the expectation value of Hermitian operators, experimentally obtained by averaging projective measurements. However, dynamical properties are often described by products of operators evaluated at

Experimental Evaluation of AI-Driven Protein Design Risks Using Safe Biological Proxies

June 20, 2025
Author(s)
Svetlana Ikonomova, Bruce Wittmann, Fernanda Piorino Macruz de Oliveira, David Ross, Samuel Schaffter, Olga Vasilyeva, Elizabeth Strychalski, Eric Horvitz, James Diggans, Sheng Lin-Gibson, Geoffrey Taghon
Advances in machine learning are providing new abilities for engineering biology, promising leaps forward with beneficial applications. At the same time, these advances raise concerns about biosecurity. Recently, Wittmann et al. described an in silico

Eave and Vent Experiments (EaVE) Phase A

June 18, 2025
Author(s)
Christopher Brown, Alexander Maranghides, Giovanni Di Cristina Torres, Diana Bailey, Lucy Fox, Eric Link, Selvarajah Ramesh, Monica Flores, Shonali Nazare, J. Houston Miller, Erin McCaughey
This report documents a series of full-scale fire experiments conducted at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to characterize the performance of select wildland-urban interface (WUI) eave vents exposed to fire from noncombustible

Inter-tool analysis of a NIST dataset for assessing baseline nucleic acid sequence screening

June 18, 2025
Author(s)
Tyler Laird, Samuel Forry, Kevin Flyangolts, Craig Bartling, Bryan Gemler, Jacob Beal, Tessa Alexanian, Nicole Wheeler, Krista Ternus, Todd Treangen, Gene D. Godbold, Michael Nute, Leonard Foner, Scott Jackson, Jens Berlips
Nucleic acid synthesis is a dual-use technology that can benefit fields such as biology, medicine, and information storage. However, synthetic nucleic acids could also potentially be used negligently and ultimately cause harm, or be used with malicious

Demonstration of dispersion gas barometry

June 17, 2025
Author(s)
Yuanchao Yang, Jack Stone, Patrick Egan
Realization of the optical pascal has been limited by systematic errors caused by distortion of the optic. In this work, distortion error is circumvented via synchronous measurement of helium refractivity at two optical frequencies. The resultant pressure

Microscopic-scale defect analysis on b-Ga2O3 through microscopy

June 12, 2025
Author(s)
Minyeong Kim, Andrew Winchester, Alline Myers, Edwin Heilweil, Ory Maimon, Wei-Chang Yang, Sang-Mo Koo, Qiliang Li, Sujitra Pookpanratana
β-Ga2O3 is a wide bandgap semiconductor with potential for surpassing current-generation high-power device performance and cost-effectiveness, due to its unique properties and availability of large high-quality substrates. However, β-Ga2O3 power

Description of the electronic structure of oxyhemoglobin using Fe L-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy

Author(s)
Augustin Braun, Charles Titus, Michael Baker, Max Waters, James Yan, Sang-Jun Lee, Dennis Nordlund, William Doriese, Galen O'Neil, Daniel Schmidt, Daniel Swetz, Joel Ullom, Kent Irwin, Edward Solomon
The electronic structure of oxyhemoglobin (oxyHb), the O2-bound form of the oxygen carrier, has been controversial since the discovery of its diamagnetism in 1936. This study uses partial fluorescence yield Fe L-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) in

Radial polarization imaging of entangled biphoton state

June 11, 2025
Author(s)
Jiung Kim, Jeeseong Hwang, Martin Sohn
Polarization entanglement of single photons is a key element to enable quantum 2.0 applications such as quantum computing, quantum networks, and quantum sensing. Verification and fidelity assessment of quantum entanglement of single photon pairs correlated
