Traceability for Aerosol Electrometer in the fA Range

June 1, 2013
Author(s)
Dean G. Jarrett, Miles Owen
Described here are the configurations and procedures used to provide traceability to electrical standards for an aerosol electrometer calibration in the range ± 20 fA to ± 40 fA. The technique used here simulated the condition of a current induced when

A fitting program for molecules with two equivalent methyl tops and C2v point-group symmetry at equilibrium: Application to existing microwave, millimeter, and sub-millimeter wave measurements of acetone

May 31, 2013
Author(s)
Jon T. Hougen, Vadim V. Ilyushin
A program, called PAM_C2v_2tops, for fitting the high-resolution torsion-rotation spectra of molecules with two equivalent methyl rotors and C2v symmetry at equilibrium is described and applied to the spectrum of acetone [(CH3)2CO]. The G36 permutation

A General Conformance Testing Framework for IEEE 11073 PHD's Communication Model

May 31, 2013
Author(s)
Raghu N. Kacker, Linbin Yu, Yu Lei, David R. Kuhn, Ram D. Sriram, Kevin G. Brady
ISO/IEEE 11073 Personal Health Data (IEEE 11073 PHD) is a set of standards that addresses the interoperability of personal healthcare devices. As an important part of IEEE 11073 PHD, ISO/IEEE 1107-20601 optimized exchange protocol (IEEE 11073-20601)

Analysis of shot noise in the detection of ultrashort optical pulse trains

May 31, 2013
Author(s)
Franklyn J. Quinlan, Tara M. Fortier, Haifeng (. Jiang, Scott A. Diddams
We present a frequency domain model of shot noise in the photodetection of ultrashort optical pulse trains using a time-varying analysis. Shot noise-limited photocurrent power spectral densities, signal-to-noise expressions, and shot noise spectral

Mass diffusion of organic fluids: a molecular dynamics perspective

May 31, 2013
Author(s)
Alexander Y. Smolyanitsky, Andrei F. Kazakov, Thomas J. Bruno, Marcia L. Huber
A well-established interaction potential, the Optimized Potential for Liquid Simulation All-Atom (OPLS-AA) force-field, within the MD framework was used to determine self- and mutual diffusivity of several near-critical and supercritical fluids. The test

Photochemical Properties of Some Cl-Containing Halogenated Alkanes

May 31, 2013
Author(s)
Vladimir L. Orkin, Victor Khamaganov, E. E. Kasimovskaya, A G. Guschin
Rate constants for the gas phase reactions of OH radicals with three partially halogenated alkanes, CHCl3 (kMC), CHFClCFCl2 (k122a), and CH2CFCl2 (k132c), were measured using a discharge flow – electron paramagnetic resonance technique over the temperature

Reliability Monitoring For Highly Leaky Devices

May 31, 2013
Author(s)
Jason T. Ryan, Jason P. Campbell, Kin P. Cheung, John S. Suehle, Richard Southwick, Anthony Oates
We demonstrate a new charge pumping (CP) methodology, frequency modulated CP (FMCP), that robustly treats metrology challenges associated with high gate leakage current. By moving to an AC coupled measurement, we are able to easily resolve small CP signals

Testing quantum expanders is co-QMA-complete

May 31, 2013
Author(s)
Yi-Kai Liu, Stephen P. Jordan, Pawel Wocjan, Adam Bookatz
A quantum expander is a unital quantum channel that is rapidly mixing, has only a few Kraus operators, and can be implemented efficiently on a quantum computer. We consider the problem of estimating the mixing time (i.e., the spectral gap) of a quantum

AlGaAs Composition Standards at NIST

May 30, 2013
Author(s)
Kristine A. Bertness
High-accuracy comparison standards for Al mole fraction x in AlxGa1–xAs have been available at NIST since 2006 via the Standard Reference Material (SRM) program. This extended abstract describes the development history and technology behind these SRMs.

Canonicalization in the PrIKL Reasoner

May 30, 2013
Author(s)
Don E. Libes, Antoine D. Gerardin, Severin Tixier, Fabian M. Neuhaus
Many objects in the PrIKL Reasoner have a canonical representation. This representation and its implementation required a number of choices with ramifications. This paper describes the choices, their consequences, and some of the more interesting

Sensitivity of gold nano conductors to common contaminations ab initio results

May 29, 2013
Author(s)
Shmuel Barzilai, Francesca M. Tavazza, Lyle E. Levine
Gold nanowire chains are considered a good candidate for nanoelectronic devices because they exhibit remarkable structural and electrical properties. A previous study shows that the beryllium terminated BeO (0001) surface may be a useful platform for

Thermal Decomposition Kinetics of 1,3,5-Triisopropylcyclohexane

May 29, 2013
Author(s)
Raina V. Gough, Jason A. Widegren, Thomas J. Bruno
Recent surrogate diesel fuel mixture development identified the need for a multiply-substituted, low cetane number, high molecular mass monocycloalkane component. On the basis of a thermophysical property evaluation and prediction, 1,3,5
