Optical Microwave Frequency Stability: Some Constraints

July 25, 2005
Author(s)
Leo W. Hollberg, Scott A. Diddams, A Bartels, John J. McFerran, Eugene N. Ivanov, G Wilpers, Christopher W. Oates
Optical frequency references achieve the best frequency stability of any oscillators by taking advantage of high Q = υ 0/{Δ}υ optical resonances. These systems are beginning to run into fundamental and technical limitations which are discussed.

4-bar-quasi-phasematching for second-harmonic generation in microdisks

August 15, 2011
Author(s)
Paulina S. Kuo, Glenn S. Solomon
We present a theoretical description of resonantly enhanced, 4-bar-quasi-phasematched, second-harmonic generation in microdisks made of materials possessing 4-bar symmetry, such as GaAs, GaP and ZnSe. The theory describes the interplay between quasi

2 Combinatorial Methods Polymer Science: Synthesis and Characterization

November 1, 2001
Author(s)
J C. Meredith, A P. Smith, Alamgir Karim, Eric J. Amis
Combinatorial methodologies offer the ability to efficiently measure relevant chemical and physical properties over lare regimes of varible space. We review recent work in the development of combinatorial methods for polymer synthesis and characterization

Persistent photoconductivity studies of c-axis GaN nanowires grown by MBE

September 16, 2007
Author(s)
Norman Sanford, Paul T. Blanchard, Kristine A. Bertness, Alexana Roshko, Beau Burton, Lorelle Mansfield, John B. Schlager, Steven George, Aric Sanders
Photoconductivity (PC) and persistent photoconductivity (PPC) were measured on c-axis GaN nanowires (NWs) grown by catalyst-free nitrogen plasma assisted MBE on Si(111) substrates. Unintentionally doped n-type NWs from two separate growth batches were

Vibration-induced field fluctuations in a superconducting magnet

June 27, 2016
Author(s)
Joseph W. Britton, John J. Bollinger, Justin G. Bohnet, Brian C. Sawyer, Hermann Uys, Michael Biercuk
Superconducting magnets enable precise control of nuclear and electron spins, and are used in experiments that explore biological and condensed matter systems, and fundamental atomic particles. In high-precision applications, a common view is that that

Pulse Metrology, Part II

June 1, 2012
Author(s)
Nicholas G. Paulter Jr., Donald R. Larson
Pulse metrology refers to the science of the measurement of pulses, which are transient phenomena. This article describes concepts important for pulse metrology, namely, reproducibility and repeatability of measurement, measurement uncertainty, and

Practical performance limits on optical frequency transfer over fiber optic links

May 4, 2008
Author(s)
Paul A. Williams, William C. Swann, Nathan R. Newbury
We present theory and experiment quantifying the limitations to stable transport of optical frequencies over optical fiber. These are fundamental fiber noise, propagation delay, bidirectional propagation and system noise in the measurement interferometers.

Surface, Interface and Thin-Film Magnetism

January 1, 1990
Author(s)
L Falicov, Daniel T. Pierce, S Bader, R Gronsky, K Hathaway, H Hopster, D Lambeth, S Parkin, G Prinz, M Salamon, Ivan K. Schuller, R Victora
A comprehensive review and state of the art in the field of surface, interface, and thin-film magnetism is presented. New growth techniques which produce atomically engineered novel material, special characterization techniques to measure meagnetic

Reaching Beyond Discovery

February 1, 2004
Author(s)
Eric J. Amis
Whatever you are trying to make, the choice of materials is often bewildering. Novel combinatorial approaches allow you to reduce the time and costs necessary to optimize results, while stimulating the quest for deeper fundamental knowledge.
