Jacob H. Forstater, Kyle Briggs, Joseph W. Robertson, Jessica H. Benjamini, Olivier M. Marie-Rose, Canute I. Vaz, John J. Kasianowicz, Vincent Tabard-Cossa, Arvind Balijepalli
Single molecule measurements with nanometer-scale pores are being developed for a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic applications.  Critical to the method is the ability to accurately and precisely detect the presence of an analyte, quantify its

NIST Impact on Patenting

October 31, 2016
Author(s)
Gary W. Anderson Jr.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) mission is to “promote U.S. innovation and industrial competitiveness.” To meet this mission, NIST scientists produce a great variety of scientific and technical outputs. This paper present

Ring Resonator Thermometry

October 31, 2016
Author(s)
Nikolai Klimov, Zeeshan Ahmed
We report on our study of a temperature response of ring resonator based sensors and their interchangeability over a wide temperature range. Our results suggest that with a proper fabrication process control the interchangeability in photonic thermometers

Self-Assembly of Polymer-Grafted Nanoparticles in Solvent-free Conditions

October 31, 2016
Author(s)
Alexandros Chremos, Jack F. Douglas
The grafting of polymer chains onto the surface of spherical nanoparticles leads to a hybrid type of fluid that exhibits properties of both particle suspensions and melts of star polymers – these properties being controlled by the relative dimensions of

The Economic Impact of Technology Infrastructure for Advanced Robotics

October 31, 2016
Author(s)
Gary W. Anderson Jr.
NIST performed a series of independent analyses to guide advanced manufacturing research investments. This brief reports on the results of the analysis of the advanced robotics and automation sector. The study identifies critical technical needs in the

The Economic Impact of Technology Infrastructure for Smart Manufacturing

October 31, 2016
Author(s)
Gary W. Anderson Jr.
NIST performed a series of independent analyses to guide advanced manufacturing research investments. This briefs analyzes results that identified technology infrastructure needs in smart manufacturing. The study finds that closing these gaps supports the

Using Network Analyses to Identify Emerging Research Areas

October 31, 2016
Author(s)
Susan L. Makar, Amanda J. Malanowski, Amy L. Trost
The Information Services Office (ISO) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is working to identify emerging research areas where NIST can have the greatest impact on industry and society. ISO staff have analyzed bibliometric data

An Overview of Atom-Based SI-Traceable Electric-Field Metrology

October 30, 2016
Author(s)
Joshua A. Gordon, Christopher L. Holloway, Matthew T. Simons
We present an overview of radio frequency (RF) electric-field measurements using Rydberg atoms. This technique exploits the rich resonance response of these atoms which can occur across a large frequency range from 1 GHz-500 GHz. This measurement utilizes

Lance, Eric Stengel, Menghua Wang, Zhongping Lee, Jianwei Wei, Junfang Lin, Chuanmin Hu, Charles Kovach, David English, Jennifer Cannizzaro, Alex Gilerson, Sam Ahmed, Carlos Carrizo, Ahmed El-Habashi, Robert Foster, Matteo Ottaviani, Robert Arnone, Sherwin Ladner, Wesley Goode, Ryan Vandermeulen, Nicholas Tufillaro, Jasmine Nahorniak, Curtiss Davis, Joaquim I. Goes, Kali McKee, Scott Freeman, Joaquin E. Chaves Cedeno, Kenneth Voss, B. Carol Johnson

Towards a Road-Mapping Ontology for Open Innovation in Smart Manufacturing

October 30, 2016
Author(s)
Nenad Ivezic, Miroslav Ljubicic
In nascent areas, such as Smart Manufacturing, new collaborative research and development programs (R&D) are frequently formed with the goal to ignite the innovation lifecycle. Yet, clearly formulating common goals and enabling shared understanding of key

Gain Comparison of a 3D?Printed Horn and an Electroformed Horn

October 29, 2016
Author(s)
Michael H. Francis, David R. Novotny, Josh Gordon, Alexandra Curtin, Ronald C. Wittmann
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has used the three‐antenna extrapolation method to determine the on‐axis gain of several antennas in the WR8 frequency band. One antenna is an electroformed μ=±1 probe with gain of about 9 dB. The

Caring: An Undiscovered Super "Ility" of Smart Healthcare

October 28, 2016
Author(s)
Nancy Laplante, Phillip Laplante, Jeff Voas
As new and exciting applications emerge using smart technologies, the Internet of Things, data analytics, and others for healthcare, a critical problem is emerging: the potential loss of "caring." The interplay of technology and caring has been discussed

Enhanced Sensitivity of Neil1-/- Mice to Chronic UVB Exposure

October 28, 2016
Author(s)
Pawel Jaruga, M Miral Dizdar, Marcus J. Calkins, Vladimir Vartanian, Amanda McCullough, R. S. Lloyd, Guldal Kirkali
Oxidative stress and oxidatively induced DNA base damage are central mediators of UV-induced carcinogenesis and skin aging. However, increased steady-state levels of oxidatively induced DNA base damage have not been reported after chronic UV exposure
