Sub-micron gap capacitor for measurement of breakdown voltage in air

March 24, 2006
Author(s)
Emmanouel S. Hourdakis, Brian Simonds, Neil M. Zimmerman
We have developed a new method for measuring the value of breakdown voltage in air for electrode separations from 400 nm to 45 'm. The electrodes used were thin film Au lines evaporated on sapphire. The resulting capacitors had an area of 80 'm by 80 'm

The Planck constant, watt and vacuum balances, and an evolving Mise en pratique for the kilogram in North America

July 1, 2012
Author(s)
Jon R. Pratt, David B. Newell, Zeina J. Kubarych, Stephan Schlamminger, Darine El Haddad, Ruimin Liu, Edwin R. Williams, Dave Inglis, Barry M. Wood, Carlos Sanchez, Richard Green
We report preparations underway at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the United States and at the National Research Council (NRC) in Canada to support the redefinition of the international system of units (SI) and the development

Surface and Interface Properties of PVDF/Acrylic Copolymer Blends

November 1, 2002
Author(s)
Xiaohong Gu, Tinh Nguyen, Mark R. VanLandingham, D Nguyen
Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) is commonly blended with amorphous polymers to improve its optical property. The surface and interface properties of PVDF blended with different amounts of poly(methyl methacrylate) and poly(ethyl acrylate) copolymer (PMMA

Radiation-suppressed superconducting quantum bit in a planar geometry

February 19, 2013
Author(s)
Martin O. Sandberg, Tomas A. Ohki, Jose A. Aumentado, Martin P. Weides, David P. Pappas
We present a superconducting transmon qubit circuit design based on large, coplanar capacitor plates and a microstrip resonator. The microstrip geometry, with the ground plane on the back, enhances access to the circuit for state preparation and

Measurement of the Rheological Properties of Cement Paste: A New Approach

July 1, 1999
Author(s)
Chiara F. Ferraris
This paper presents a new approach for predicting the rheological properties of concrete from rheological measurements on cement paste and from concrete composition. This approach requires measurement of the cement paste rheology under the same conditions

Measurement Uncertainty of Surface Temperature Distributions for Laser Powder Bed Fusion Processes

August 10, 2021
Author(s)
David Deisenroth, Sergey Mekhontsev, Brandon Lane, Leonard M. Hanssen, Ivan Zhirnov, Vladimir Khromchenko, Steven Grantham, Daniel Cardenas-Garcia, Alkan Donmez
… Well-established literature values for high-purity nickel solidification temperature and emissivity at the … 8 % at the solidification point of high-purity nickel, both of which are satisfactory. This paper also …

Combinatorial Investigation of Structural Quality of Au/Ni Contacts on GaN

June 1, 2004
