Scaling studies with the dual crystal spectrometer at the OMEGA-EP laser facility

October 26, 2010
Author(s)
Lawrence T. Hudson, C.I Szabo, J. Workman, K. Flippo, Uri Feldman, Albert Henins
The dual crystal spectrometer (DCS) is an approved diagnostic at the OMEGA and the OMEGA-EP laser facilities for the measurement of high energy x-rays in the 11 90 keV energy range, e.g., for verification of the x-ray spectrum of backlighter targets of

Explanation of (hhl) f Habit Planes in Ferrous Alloys

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
H M. Ledbetter, Martin Dunn
We give a possible explanation of the remarkable habit-plane measurements reported by Kajiwara for Fe-Ni-Mn alloys. Examining small, thin (early-stage), martensite plates, Kajiwara found that all habit-plane normals fall on the (hhl)f line, spanning about

Computational Model Predictions of Suspension Rheology: Comparison to Experiment

July 25, 2007
Author(s)
Nicos Martys, Chiara F. Ferraris, V Gupta, Josephine H. Cheung
Predicting the rheological properties of fresh concrete, mortars, and cement paste from first principles remains a great challenge. While progress has been made in modeling the rheological properties of idealized hard sphere-like suspensions, there is

Broadband Permittivity Measurements of High Dielectric Constant Films

March 1, 2006
Author(s)
Jan Obrzut, Nozaki R. AnopchenkoA
Our investigation concerns measuring broadband dielectric permittivity and loss tangent of thin film high dielectric constant (high-k) dielectric materials at microwave frequencies. The measurements are made in an APC-7 coaxial configuration where the test

Phase Field Modeling of Electrochemistry. II. Kinetics

Author(s)
Jonathan E. Guyer, William J. Boettinger, James A. Warren, Geoffrey B. McFadden
… Equilibrium, unpublished) is explored for advancing (plating) and receding (corroding) conditions in one …

Micro-Mirror Array Control of Optical Tweezer Trapping Beams

August 28, 2002
Author(s)
Nicholas Dagalakis, Thomas W. LeBrun, J Lippiatt
The efficiency of optical tweezer manufacturing depends on the number of trapping beams available. Micro optics technology offers the opportunity to significantly increase the number of trapping beams without a significant increase of the cost or size of

Structure Formation in Micro-Confined Polymeric Emulsions

August 1, 2002
Author(s)
Jai A. Pathak, Steven D. Hudson, Kalman D. Migler
Application of a shear field to a concentrated emulsion induces a complex spatial and temporal response. The behavior of a concentrated system is treated as an extrapolation of the well-understood behavior of isolated droplets (or of the behavior of two

The Impact-Echo Method: An Overview

May 1, 2001
Author(s)
Nicholas J. Carino
The impact-echo method is a technique for flaw detection in concrete. It is based on monitoring the surface motion resulting from a short-duration mechanical impact. The method overcomes many of the barriers associated with flaw detection in concrete based

Acoustic Methods for Transport Properties Measurements in Gases

June 1, 1998
Author(s)
Keith A. Gillis, J B. Mehl, Michael R. Moldover
Two novel acoustic resonators have been developed, one for measuring the viscosity and a second for measuring the Prandtl number of gases. For viscosity measurements, we use a double Helmholtz resonator called the Greenspan viscometer. The Greenspan

Electron Collision Data for Plasma-Processing Gases

October 1, 2000
Author(s)
Loucas G. Christophorou, James K. Olthoff
Low-temperature plasma applications require detailed understanding of the physical and chemical processes occurring in the plasmas themselves. For instance, as the push for smaller feature sizes and higher quality devices in the semiconductor industry has

Highly Contrasting Static Charging and Bias Stress Effects in Pentacene Transistors with Polystyrene Heterostructures Incorporating Oxidizable N,N'-Bis(4-Methoxyphenyl)aniline Side Chains as Gate Dielectrics

August 1, 2018
Author(s)
Qingyang Zhang, Tejaswini S. Kale, Evan Plunkett, Wei Shi, Brian Kirby, Daniel H. Reich, Howard E. Katz
Charge trapping and storage in polymer dielectrics can be harnessed for the control of semiconductor device behavior, including organic transistors. For example, gate insulators chosen for organic transistors have an important effect on both bias stress

Synthesis, Fabrication, and Heterostructure of Charged, Substituted Polystyrene Multilayer Dielectrics and Their Effects in Pentacene Transistors

May 10, 2016
Author(s)
Olivia J. Alley, Evan Plunkett, Tejaswini S. Kale, Xin Guo, Grace McClintock, Manasa Bhupathiraju, Brian Kirby, Daniel H. Reich, Howard E. Katz
Charge trapping and storage in polymer dielectric can be harnessed for the control of semiconductor device behavior, including organic transistors. For example, gate insulators chosen for organic transistors have an important effect on both bias stress

The Polarizability of Helium and Gas Metrology

June 22, 2007
Author(s)
James W. Schmidt, R Gavioso, E May, Michael R. Moldover
Using a quasi-spherical, microwave cavity resonator, we measured the refractive index of helium to deduce its molar polarizability A ε in the limit of zero density. We obtained (A ε,meas - A ε,theory)/A ε = (-1.8plus or minus} 8.4)× 10 -6, where the

Metrology for the next generation of semiconductor devices

October 12, 2018
Author(s)
Ndubuisi G. Orji, Mustafa Badaroglu, Bryan M. Barnes, Carlos Beitia, Benjamin D. Bunday, Umberto Celano, Regis J. Kline, Mark Neisser, Yaw S. Obeng, Andras Vladar
The semiconductor industry continues to produce ever smaller devices that are ever more complex in shape and contain ever more types of materials. The ultimate sizes and functionality of these new devices will be affected by fundamental and engineering
