Author(s)
Christopher Stafford, Aaron M. Forster, C Harrison, Cher H. Davis, Eric J. Amis, Alamgir Karim
Polymer adhesion is important to numerous technologies including electronic packaging, coatings and paints, biomedical implants, and pressure-sensitive adhesives. The challenge is to understand the fundamental driving forces for the development of adhesive

Polyelectrolyte Effects in Model Photoresist Developer Solutions

August 1, 2003
Author(s)
Vivek M. Prabhu, Ronald L. Jones, Eric K. Lin, Wen-Li Wu
We demonstrate that the industrially relevant deprotected photoresist poly(4-hydroxy styrene) is a polyelectrolyte when dissolved in aqueous base solutions. These findings demonstrate the well-known monomer-monomer correlations indicative of

Growth of superconducting single crystals

June 1, 2003

Debra L. Kaiser, L.F. Schneemeyer
… superconducting materials. The introductory sections cover fundamentals of crystal growth with emphasis on special …

Electrodeposition of Silver in Sub-Micron-Sized Features

February 1, 2002
Author(s)
B C. Baker, Thomas P. Moffat, Daniel Josell, Daniel Wheeler
Successful superfilling of lines and vias will be shown with a commercial, silver-cyanide electrolyte. Hysteretic i-V behavior and chronoamperometric transients on planar electrodes are used to extract parameters that quantify the kinetics of the

Towards Near Perfect Crystals With Only Well-Characterized Imperfections

February 1, 2002
Author(s)
H S. Peiser
Throughout the past century NBS/NIST supported a great variety of research studies in crystallography where the aim was the highest attainable accuracy in measurement. While avoiding overlap with other papers in this volume, this article summarizes results

Low Harmonic Distortion in a Josephson Arbitrary Waveform Synthesizer

August 14, 2000
Author(s)
Samuel P. Benz, Charles J. Burroughs, Paul D. Dresselhaus
The use of broadband integrated filters has enabled practical operating margins for ac waveforms synthesized from the perfectly quantized voltage pulses of Josephson junction arrays. This improvement enabled the digital synthesis of arbitrary waveforms

Imaging of induced surface charge distribution effects in glass vapor cells used for Rydberg atom-based sensors

June 1, 2025
Author(s)
Charles Patrick, Noah Schlossberger, Daniel Hammerland, Nikunjkumar Prajapati, Tate McDonald, Samuel Berweger, Rajavardhan Talashila, Alexandra Artusio-Glimpse, Christopher Holloway
We demonstrate the imaging of localized surface electric (E) field effects on the atomic spectrum in a vapor cell used in Rydberg atom-based sensors. These surface E-fields can result from an induced electric charge distribution on the surface. Induced

Orientation and Magnetic Properties of FePt and CoPt Films Grown on MgO(110) Single-Crystal Substrate by Electron-Beam Coevaporation

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
M-H Yu, Hiroyuki Ohguchi, Antonio Zambano, Ichiro Takeuchi, J P. Liu, Daniel Josell, Leonid A. Bendersky
We have studied the orientation and magnetic properties of FePt and CoPt films deposited by electron-beam co-evaporation on MgO(110) single-crystal substrates at different substrate temperatures between 500 and 700 degrees C. We observed that the long

Simulation of a Single Asperity Impacts at Head-Disk Interface

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
Tze J. Chuang, Stephen M. Hsu
During the track accessing mode of a hard disk drive, the flying height of the slider over the disk surface becomes smaller and smaller as the demand in data storage a real density increases. As a result, the propensity of glide avalanche is bound to

Sensitivity Analysis Affecting the Calibration of Heat-Flow-Meter Apparatus

July 1, 2019
Author(s)
Robert R. Zarr, Sergio A. Carvajal, James J. Filliben
Results and analysis of a sensitivity study of four procedural variables on the calibration response of two commercial heat-flow-meter apparatus in compliance with ASTM Test Method C 518 are presented. The apparatus ranged in plate size from 305 mm by 305

Mechanisms of spontaneous chain formation and subsequent microstructural evolution in shear- driven strongly confined drop monolayers

May 18, 2019
Author(s)
Sagnik Singha, Abhilash R. Malipeddi, Mauricio Zurita-Gotor, Kausik Sarkar, Kevin Shen, Michael Loewenberg, Kalman D. Migler, Jerzy Blawzdziewicz
It was experimentally demonstrated by Migler and his collaborators [Phys. Rev. Lett. 2001, 86, 1023; Langmuir 2003, 19, 8667] that a strongly confined drop monolayer sheared between two parallel plates can spontaneously develop a flow-oriented drop-chain

Temperature-Dependent Material Modeling for Structural Steels: Formulation and Application
