Effects of dual antibacterial agents MDPB and nano-silver in primer on microcosm biofilm, cytotoxicity and dentin bond properties

February 1, 2013
Author(s)
Ke Zhang, Lei Cheng, Satoshi Imazato, Joseph M. Antonucci, Nancy Lin, Sheng Lin-Gibson, Yuxing Bai, Hockin H. Xu
Objectives: Secondary caries at restoration margins is the main reason for restoration failure. Antibacterial bonding agents are promising to inhibit biofilm acids at the tooth-restoration interfaces. The objective of this study was to investigate the

Improving Concrete Bridge Decks with Internal Curing

February 1, 2013
Author(s)
Jason Weiss, Dale P. Bentz, Carmelo DiBella
Transportation agencies strive to provide durable, long lasting concrete bridge decks. While high performance concrete is frequently desired due to its resistance to chloride ingress and corrosion, these mixtures are often accompanied with an increased

Interfacial Mechanical Properties of n-Alkylsilane Monolayers on Silicon Substrates

February 1, 2013
Author(s)
Brian G. Bush, Frank W. DelRio, Cherno Jaye, Daniel A. Fischer, Robert F. Cook
The interfacial properties of n-alkylsilane self-assembled monolayers on silicon were investigated by normal force spectroscopy and lateral force measurements and correlated with molecular structure via near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS)

NIST Gold Nanoparticle Reference Materials Do Not Induce Oxidative DNA Damage

February 1, 2013
Author(s)
Bryant C. Nelson, Donald H. Atha, John T. Elliott, Bryce J. Marquis, Elijah J. Petersen, Danielle Cleveland, Stephanie S. Watson, I-Hsiang Tseng, Andrew Dillon, Melissa Theodore, Joany Jackman
Well-characterized, nanoparticle reference materials are urgently needed for nanomaterial toxicity studies. The National Institute of Standards and Technology has developed three gold nanoparticle (AuNP) reference materials (10 nm, 30 nm, 60 nm) to address

Analysis of Egress From the World Trade Center Towers on September 11, 2001

January 31, 2013
Author(s)
Richard D. Peacock, Jason D. Averill, Erica D. Kuligowski
This paper provides an analysis of the evacuation of the World Trade Center towers culled from telephone and face-to-face interviews with survivors. A decedent analysis explores where occupants were located when each tower was attacked. Multiple regression

Development of a New, Precise Near-infrared Doppler Wavelength Reference: A Fiber Fabry-Perot Interferometer

January 31, 2013
Author(s)
Samuel Halverson, Suvrath Mahadevan, Lawrence W. Ramsey, Stephen L. Redman, Gillian Nave, John C. Wilson , Fred Hearty, Jon Holtzman
We present the ongoing development of a commercially available Micron Optics ber-Fabry Perot Interferometer as a precise, stable, easy to use, and economic spectrograph reference with the goal of achieving 1 m s..1 long term stability. Fiber Fabry-Perot

Frequency Dependent Charge Pumping -- A Defect Depth Profiling Tool?

January 31, 2013
Author(s)
Jason T. Ryan, Richard G. Southwick, Jason P. Campbell, Kin P. Cheung, John S. Suehle
We investigate the validity of using frequency-dependent charge pumping (FD-CP) to determine bulk defect depth distributions. Using simple physical arguments we conclude that: (1) the effective tunneling length to a bulk defect can be very different than

Modeling the Evacuation of the World Trade Center Towers on September 11, 2001

January 31, 2013
Author(s)
Erica D. Kuligowski, Richard D. Peacock, Jason D. Averill
This paper provides an analysis of the evacuation of the World Trade Center towers culled from telephone and face-to-face interviews with survivors. A decedent analysis explores where occupants were located when each tower was attacked. Multiple regression

SERIES RESISTANCE: A MONITOR FOR HOT CARRIER STRESS

January 31, 2013
Author(s)
Jason P. Campbell, Serghei Drozdov, Kin P. Cheung, Richard G. Southwick, Jason T. Ryan, John S. Suehle, Anthony Oates
In this work, we examine a series resistance extraction technique which yields accurate values from single nano-scale devices. The series resistance values, derived from this extraction technique, are shown to be sensitive to hot carrier degradation and

Techniques for microwave near-field quantum control of trapped ions

January 31, 2013
Author(s)
Ulrich J. Warring, C. Ospelkaus, Yves Colombe, Kenton R. Brown, Jason Amini, M Carsjens, Dietrich G. Leibfried, David J. Wineland
In Ospelkaus et al. [Nature 476, 181 (2011)] a microwave near-field quantum control of spin and motional degrees of freedom of one and two 25Mg+ ions enabled two-ion entanglement. In this report, we extend on the description of the experimental setup and

ELECTRICAL AND PHYSICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF BILAYER CARBOXYLIC ACID FUNCTIONALIZED MOLECULAR LAYERS

January 30, 2013
Author(s)
Sujitra J. Pookpanratana, Joseph W. Robertson, Cherno Jaye, Daniel A. Fischer, Curt A. Richter, Christina A. Hacker
We have used Flip Chip Lamination (FCL) to form monolayer and bilayer molecular junctions of carboxylic acid-containing molecules with Cu atom incorporation. Carboxylic acid-terminated monolayers are self-assembled onto ultrasmooth Au using thiol chemistry
