Intricate Resonant Raman Response in Anisotropic ReS2

August 18, 2017
Author(s)
Amber McCreary, Jeffrey R. Simpson, Yuanxi Wang, Daniel Rhodes, Kazunori Fujisawa, Luis Balicas, Madan Dubey, Vincent H. Crespi, M. Terrones, Angela R. Hight Walker
Rhenium disulfide is an exciting material due to its strong in-plane anisotropy, thus offering an additional physical parameter that can be tuned for advanced applications. ReS2 provides a major advantage for optoelectronics as it is both stable in air and

Coarse-grained model of the dynamics of electrolyte solutions

August 17, 2017
Author(s)
Jack F. Douglas, Marat Andreev, Juan J. de Pablo, Alexandros Chremos
Ion specific solvation has fundamental implications in biochemistry and the thermo- dynamics and dynamics of aqueous salt solutions has correspondingly been investigated intensively. Nonetheless, recent works have indicated fundamental unresolved issues in

Cryptography Standards in Quantum Time - New wine in old wineskin?

August 17, 2017
Author(s)
Lidong Chen
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) of the U.S. Government announced a call for proposals for quantum-resistant public-key cryptographic algorithms on December 15, 2016. The scope of the call covers all public-key cryptographic

Moisture Uptake Characterization in Nanocellulose Using Microwave Cavity

August 17, 2017
Author(s)
Caglar Emiroglu, Bharath N. Natarajan, Jeffrey W. Gilman, James Alexander Liddle, Jan Obrzut
Cellulose nanocrystal films with different helical modulation lengths are characterized. Films are obtained by tuning the rate of evaporation and surface functionalization. Dielectric constant measurements are performed and the water confinement is

STEP File Analyzer User's Guide (Version 4)

August 17, 2017
Author(s)
Robert R. Lipman
This guide describes how to use the STEP File Analyzer, a software tool that analyzes and generates a spreadsheet or a set of CSV (comma-separated value) files from a STEP (STandard for the Exchange of Product model data) file. The spreadsheets simplify

Topological Controls on the Dissolution Kinetics of Glassy Aluminosilicates

August 17, 2017
Author(s)
Tandre Oey, Isabella Pignatelli, Yingtian Yu, Narayanan Neithalath, Jeffrey W. Bullard, Mathieu Bauchy, Gaurav Sant
Fly ash which encompasses a mixture of glassy and crystalline aluminosilicates is an abundant supplementary cementitious material (SCM), valuable for replacing ordinary portland cement (OPC) as the binder fraction in concrete. As a result of the demand for

Accuracy, repeatability and interplatform reproducibility measurements of T 1 quantification methods used for DCE-MRI: results from a multicenter phantom study.

August 16, 2017
Author(s)
Octavia Bane, Stefanie J. Hectors, Mathilde Wagner, Lori L. Arlinghaus, Madhava P. Aryal, Yue Cao, Thomas L. Chenevert, Fiona Fennessy, Wei Huang, Nola M. Hylton, Jayashree Kalpathy-Cramer, Katy Keenan, Dariya I. Malyarenko, Robert V. Mulkern, David C. Newitt, Stephen E. Russek, Karl Stupic, Michael A. Boss
Purpose: To determine the in vitro accuracy, test-retest repeatability, and interplatform reproducibility of T 1 quantification protocols used for dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI at 1.5 and 3 T. Methods: A T 1 phantom with 14 samples was imaged at eight

Interface Engineering for Nanoelectronics

August 16, 2017
Author(s)
Christina A. Hacker, Robert C. Bruce, Sujitra J. Pookpanratana
Innovation in the electronics industry is tied to interface engineering as devices increasingly incorporate new materials and shrink. Molecular layers offer a versatile means of tuning interfacial electronic, chemical, physical, and magnetic properties

Simulation-aided Correlations for the Dielectric Constant of H2S, SO2, and SF6

August 16, 2017
Author(s)
Allan H. Harvey, Raymond D. Mountain
A new method is developed for correlating the static dielectric constant of polar fluids over wide ranges of conditions where few experimental data exist. Molecular dynamics simulations are used to establish the temperature and density dependence of the

Single Molecule Nanopore Spectrometry for Peptide Detection

August 15, 2017
Author(s)
Amy Chavis, Joseph Robertson, Joseph E. Reiner, Kyle Brady, Grrace Hatmaker, Nuwan Kothalawala
Sensing and characterization of water-soluble peptides is of critical importance in a wide variety of bioapplications. Single molecule nanopore spectrometry (SMNS) is based on the idea that one can use biological protein nanopores to resolve different

Epitaxially-grown self-assembled Bi2Se3/Bi2MnSe4 multilayer heterostructures

August 14, 2017
Author(s)
Joseph A. Hagmann, Xiang Li, Si-Ning Dong, Sergei Rouvimov, Sujitra J. Pookpanratana, Kin Man Yu, Tatyana Orlova, Curt A. Richter, David G. Seiler, Xinyu Liu, Jacek K. Furdyna, Margaret Dobrowolska
Progress in understanding topologically non-trivial systems offers the promise of predicting novel systems that demonstrate the remarkable properties associated with topological systems, such as unidirectional spin-polarized surface current and the

A Photonic MEMS Accelerometer with a Low-Finesse Hemispherical Microcavity Readout

August 13, 2017
Author(s)
Yiliang Bao, Feng Zhou, Thomas W. LeBrun, Jason J. Gorman
This paper describes the design, fabrication, and testing of a photonic MEMS accelerometer that uses a hemispherical microcavity to transduce the motion of the proof mass. The cavity design provides stable operation that is relatively tolerant of
