Eliot Gann, Christopher McNeill, He Qiao, Munazza Shahid, Xuchem Jiao, Flurin D. Eisner, Tingmang Wu, Zhuping Fei, Thomas D. Anthopoulos, Martin Heeney
Two fused ladder type nonfullerene acceptors, DTCCIC and DTCCIC-4F, based on an electron-donating core alkylated dithienocyclopentacarbazole flanked by electron-withdrawing non-fluorinated or fluorinated 1,1- dicyanomethylene-3-indanone (IC or IC-4F), are

Heat capacity and decomposition of rimantadine hydrochloride

January 30, 2020
Author(s)
Ala Bazyleva, Yauheni Paulechka, Dzmitry H. Zaitsau, Andrey V. Blokhin, Gennady J. Kabo
Heat capacities of antiviral drug rimantadine hydrochloride in the crystalline state were measured by adiabatic calorimetry and differential scanning calorimetry in the temperature range from (7 to 453) K. A broad low-enthalpy solid-state phase anomaly was

Influence of Polymer Aggregation and Liquid Immiscibility on Morphology Tuning by Varying Composition in PffBT4T-2DT/Non-Fullerene Organic Solar Cells

January 29, 2020

Subhrangsu Mukherjee, Dean M. DeLongchamp, Regis J. Kline, Iain McCulloch, Zeinab Hamid, Andrew Wadsworth, Elham Rezasoltani, Sarah Holliday, Mohammed Azzouzi, Anne Guilbert, Yifan Dong, Marios Neophytou, Mark Little, Helen Bristow, Artem Bakulin, James Durrant, Jenny Nelson, Andrew A. Herzing
The temperature dependent aggregation behavior of PffBT4T polymers used in organic solar cells plays a critical role in the formation of a favorable morphology in fullerene-based devices. However, there has been little investigation into the impact of

Tuning single-electron charging and interactions between compressible Landau level islands in graphene

January 29, 2020
Author(s)
Daniel T. Walkup, Fereshte Ghahari Kermani, Christopher Guti?rrez, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Nikolai B. Zhitenev, Joseph A. Stroscio
Interacting quantum dots (QDs), small chunks of matter with well-separated energies of electronic levels, have been extensively exploited in condensed matter physics and quantum information science. Using a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope

A Predictive Control Algorithm for Time-Division-Multiplexed Readout of TES Microcalorimeters

January 28, 2020
Author(s)
Malcolm S. Durkin, Galen C. O'Neil, William B. Doriese, Johnathon D. Gard, Gene C. Hilton, Jozsef Imrek, Nathan J. Ortiz, Carl D. Reintsema, Robert W. Stevens, Daniel S. Swetz, Joel N. Ullom
Time division multiplexing (TDM) uses a digital flux-locked loop (DFLL) to linearize each first-stage SQUID amplifier. Presently, the dynamic range of our TDM systems is limited by the use of a proportional-integral controller to maintain the DFLL. In this

Nanoscale mapping of the double layer potential at the graphene-electrolyte interface

Author(s)
Evgheni Strelcov, Christopher M. Arble, Hongxuan Guo, Brian D. Hoskins, Alexander Yulaev, Ivan Vlassiouk, Nikolai B. Zhitenev, Alexander Tselev, Andrei A. Kolmakov
The structure and potential drop across the electrical double layer (EDL) govern the operation of multiple electrochemical devices, determine reaction potentials and condition ion transport through the cellular membranes in living organisms. Despite more

Phase Field Benchmark Problems Targeting Fluid Flow and Electrochemistry

January 28, 2020
Author(s)
Andrea Jokisaari, Wenkun Wu, P W. Voorhees, Jonathan E. Guyer, James A. Warren, Olle G. Heinonen
In this work, a third set of benchmark problems for phase field models are presented. These problems are being jointly developed by the Center for Hierarchical Materials Design (CHi- MaD) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) along

DARPA Organic Interconnect Characterization

January 27, 2020
Author(s)
Dylan Williams, Richard Chamberlin, Jerome Cheron, Sam Chitwood, Ken Willis, Brad Butler, Farhang Yazdani
We report on a study of interconnects fabricated on organic and silicon interposers used to connect state-of-the art digital, analog and RF chiplets commissioned by the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). The interconnects were

NIST Ballistics Toolmark Research Database

January 27, 2020
Author(s)
Xiaoyu Alan Zheng, Johannes A. Soons, Robert M. Thompson, Sushama P. Singh, Cerasela Constantin
In 2009, a report by the National Academies called into question, amongst other issues, the objectivity of visual toolmark identification by firearms examiners. The National Academies recommended development of objective toolmark identification criteria

Results of the 2018 Rapid DNA Maturity Assessment

January 27, 2020
Author(s)
Erica L. Romsos, Peter Vallone
Three commercially available integrated rapid DNA instruments were tested as a part of a rapid DNA maturity assessment in the July of 2018. The assessment was conducted with sets of blinded single-source reference samples to gauge the typing success of the

Emerging techniques for the detection of pyrotechnic residues from seized postal packages containing fireworks
