An Iterative Qualitative - Quantitative Sequential Analysis Strategy for Electron-Excited X-ray Microanalysis with Energy Dispersive Spectrometry: Finding the Unexpected Needles in the Peak Overlap Haystack

June 20, 2018
Author(s)
Dale E. Newbury, Nicholas Ritchie
When analyzing an unknown by electron-excited energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry with the entire periodic table possibly in play, how does the analyst discover minor and trace constituents when their peaks are overwhelmed by the intensity of an

Quantum-based vacuum metrology at NIST

June 20, 2018
Author(s)
Julia K. Scherschligt, James A. Fedchak, Zeeshan Ahmed, Daniel S. Barker, Kevin O. Douglass, Stephen P. Eckel, Edward T. Hanson, Jay H. Hendricks, Thomas P. Purdy, Jacob E. Ricker, Robinjeet Singh
The measurement science in realizing and disseminating the SI unit for pressure, the pascal (Pa), has been the subject of much interest at NIST. Modern optical-based techniques for pascal metrology have been investigated, including multi-photon ionization

Review of Refrigerants Evolution

June 20, 2018
Author(s)
Piotr A. Domanski, Mark O. McLinden, Andrei F. Kazakov, J S. Brown, Riccardo Brignoli, Jaehyeok Heo, Janusz Wojtusiak
The presentation discusses the application of refrigerants from the beginnings of ‘artificial cold’ in the era of industrial revolution to the currently used fluids, and the refrigerant options in response to environmental concerns. The outlook for new

Robust Extraction of Hyperbolic Metamaterial Permittivity using Total Internal Reflection Ellipsometry

June 20, 2018
Author(s)
Cheng Zhang, Nina Hong, Chengang Ji, Wenqi Zhu, Xi Chen, Amit K. Agrawal, Zhong Zhang, Tom E. Tiwald, Stefan Schoeche, James N. Hilfiker, L. Jay Guo, Henri J. Lezec
Hyperbolic metamaterials are optical materials characterized by highly anisotropic effective permittivity tensor components having opposite signs along orthogonal directions. The techniques currently employed for characterizing the optical properties of

Systems Design Approach to Low-Cost Coinage Materials

June 20, 2018
Author(s)
Eric Lass, Mark R. Stoudt, Carelyn E. Campbell
A system design approach using an Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME) was used to design three new low-cost seamless replacement coinage alloys to reduce the raw material of the current US coinage alloys. Maintaining compatibility with

A Standards and Technology Roadmap for Scalable Distributed Manufacturing Systems

June 19, 2018
Author(s)
Thomas D. Hedberg Jr., Moneer Helu, Timothy A. Sprock
The increasing decentralization of manufacturing has contributed to the growing interest in scalable distributed manufacturing systems (DMSs). The emerging body of work from smart manufacturing, Industrie 4.0, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), and

Improving dielectric nanoresonator array coatings for solar cells

June 19, 2018
Author(s)
Dongheon Ha, Nikolai B. Zhitenev
We introduce single layer silicon dioxide (SiO2) nanosphere arrays as antireflection coatings (ARCs) on a gallium arsenide (GaAs) solar cell. We make macro- and nanoscale experiments and finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) calculations to prove the

Point-of-Use, Nonexclusive, High-Power Laser Power Meter

June 19, 2018
Author(s)
Aly Artusio-Glimpse, Ivan Ryger, Paul A. Williams, John H. Lehman
We have developed a small-package, high-power laser power meter that directly measures radiation pressure on a high-reflectivity mirror for nonexclusive, in situ laser measurements without pick- off schemes. Furthermore, our non-inertial design inhibits

Design of an Octo-Strain Specimen for Biaxial Tension Testing

June 18, 2018
Author(s)
Justin L Milner, Thomas H. Gnaupel-Herold
A custom biaxial testing fixture was designed to evaluate a new specimen geometry for complex loading paths. Biaxial testing is commonly used to evaluate work-hardening behavior of sheet metal in biaxial tension to study the accumulation of plastic strains

First Direct Experimental Studies of Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 Ferroelectric Polarization Switching Down to 100-picosecond in Sub-60mV/dec Germanium Ferroelectric Nanowire FETs

June 18, 2018
Author(s)
Wonil Chung, Mengwei Si, Pragya Shrestha, Jason Campbell, Kin P. Cheung, Peide Ye
In this work, ultrafast pulses with pulse widths ranging from 100 ps to seconds were applied on the gate of Ge ferroelectric (FE) nanowire (NW) pFETs with FE Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 (HZO) gate dielectric exhibiting steep subthreshold slope (SS) below 60 mV/dec bi

C3a receptor antagonism as a novel therapeutic target for chronic rhinosinusitis

June 15, 2018
Author(s)
Jennifer K. Mulligan, Tucker Williamson, Nicholas Reaves, William Carroll, Sarah Stephenson, Peng Gao, Richard R. Drake, Ben Neely, Rodney J. Schlosser, Carl Atkinson
Background: Innate immune factors, including the complement system, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Here we examine complement activity within the respiratory mucosa of CRSwNP patients, and a

Design and Implementation of pyPRISM: A Polymer Liquid-State Theory Framework

June 15, 2018
Author(s)
Tyler B. Martin, Thomas E. Gartner, Ronald L. Jones, Chad R. Snyder, Arthi Jayaraman
Polymer Reference Interaction Site Model (PRISM) theory describes the equilibrium spatial- correlations, thermodynamics, and structure of liquid- like polymer systems and macromolecular materials. Here, we describe the code structure, implementation, and

Effect of Heat Treatment on the Microstructural Evolution of a Nickel-Based Superalloy Additive-Manufactured by Powder Bed Fusion Laser Sintering

June 15, 2018
Author(s)
Fan Zhang, Lyle E. Levine, Andrew J. Allen, Mark R. Stoudt, Greta Lindwall, Eric Lass, Maureen E. Williams, Yaakov S. Idell, Carelyn E. Campbell
Elemental segregation is a ubiquitous phenomenon in additive-manufactured (AM) parts due to solute rejection and redistribution during the rapid solidification process. Using electron microscopy, in situ synchrotron X-ray scattering and diffraction, and
