Helical Level Structure of Dirac Potential Wells

November 28, 2017
Author(s)
Daniel T. Walkup, Joseph A. Stroscio
In graphene and other massless 2D Dirac materials, Klein tunneling compromises electron confinement, and momentum-space contours can be assigned a Berry phase which is either zero or π. Consequently, in such systems the energy spectrum of circular

Multimodality of Structural, Electrical, and Gravimetric Responses of Intercalated MXenes to Water

November 28, 2017
Author(s)
Eric S. Muckley, Michael Naguib, Hsiu-Wen Wang, Lukas Vlcek, Naresh C. Osti, Robert L. Sacci, Xiahan Sang, Raymond R. Unocic, Yu Xie, Madhu Sudan Tyagi, Eugene Mamontov, Katharine L. Page, Paul R. C. Kent, Jagjit Nanda, Ilia N. Ivanov
Understanding of structural, electrical and gravimetric peculiarities of water vapor interaction with ion-intercalated MXenes used to design of a multimodal humidity sensor. Neutron scattering coupled to molecular dynamics and ab initio calculations showed

Probing the dielectric response of the interfacial buffer layer in epitaxial graphene via optical spectroscopy

November 28, 2017
Author(s)
Heather M. Hill, Albert Rigosi, Sugata Chowdhury, Yanfei Yang, Nhan Van Nguyen, Francesca Tavazza, Randolph Elmquist, David B. Newell, Angela R. Hight Walker
Monolayer epitaxial graphene (EG) is a suitable candidate for a variety of electronic applications. One advantage of EG growth on the Si face of SiC is that it develops as a single crystal, as does the layer below, referred to as the interfacial buffer

Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information in Nonfederal Information Systems and Organizations [including updates as of 11-28-2017]

November 28, 2017
Author(s)
Ronald S. Ross, Patrick Viscuso, Gary Guissanie, Kelley L. Dempsey, Mark Riddle
[Superseded by SP 800-171 Rev. 1 (December 2016, updated 02/20/2018): https://doi.org/10.6028/NIST.SP.800-171r1] The protection of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) while residing in nonfederal information systems and organizations is of paramount

Rydberg Atom Electric-Field Metrology

November 28, 2017
Author(s)
Joshua A. Gordon, Christopher L. Holloway, Matthew T. Simons
We present a technique which shows great promise for realizing an atomic standard measurement of RF fields that is intrinsically calibrated, directly linked to the SI and atomic structural constants. This technique relies on the reponse of Rydberg atoms to

Guidance on the TDEA Block Ciphers

November 27, 2017
Author(s)
Elaine B. Barker, Larry Feldman, Gregory A. Witte
This bulletin summarizes the information found in NIST SP 800-67, Rev. 2, Recommendation for the Triple Data Encryption Algorithm (TDEA) Block Cipher. This bulletin offers an overview of the TDEA block cipher along with usage guidance and NIST’s plans.

Kicking the Tires of the NIST Microwave Uncertainty Framework Part 2*

November 27, 2017
Author(s)
Ronald A. Ginley
Traceability of a measurement requires two parts. An unbroken chain of measurements and uncertainties for each link of the chain. The NIST Microwave Uncertainty Framework (MUF) can provide both the required parts for a single link in the chain or for

Neutron and X-ray Tomography (NeXT) system for simultaneous, dual modality tomography

November 27, 2017
Author(s)
Jacob M. LaManna, Daniel S. Hussey, Elias M. Baltic, David L. Jacobson
Dual mode tomography offers the potential of improved estimation of the composition of a sample from the complimentary of the interaction of the two probes with the sample. We have developed a simultaneous neutron and 90 keV X-ray tomography system that is

Plasma nanotexturing of silicon surfaces for photovoltaics applications: Influence of initial surface finish on the evolution of topographical and optical properties

November 27, 2017
Author(s)
Guillaume Fischer, Etienne Drahi, Martin Foldyna, Thomas Germer, Erik V. Johnson
Using a plasma to generate a surface texture with feature sizes on the order of nanometers ("nanotexturing") is a promising technique being considered for application in thin, high- efficiency crystalline silicon solar cells. This study investigates the

Pressure Tuning of Collapse of Helimagnetic Structure in Au 2 Mn

November 27, 2017
Author(s)
I Lin NMN Liu, Maria J. Pascale, Juscelino Leao, Craig Brown, William D. Ratcliff, Qingzhen Huang, Nicholas Butch
We identify the phase boundary between spiral spin and ferromagnetic phases in Au 2Mn at a critical pressure of 16.4 kbar, as determined by neutron diffraction, magnetization and magnetoresistance measurements. The temperature-dependent critical field at a
