Accurate measurement of the loss rate of cold atoms due to background gas collisions for the quantum-based cold atom vacuum standard

August 1, 2023
Author(s)
Daniel Barker, James A. Fedchak, Jacek Klos, Julia Scherschligt, Abrar Sheikh, Eite Tiesinga, Stephen Eckel
We present measurements of thermalized collisional rate coefficients for ultra-cold $^7$Li and $^87}$Rb colliding with room-temperature He, Ne, N$_2$, Ar, Kr, and Xe. In our experiments, a combined flowmeter and dynamic expansion system, a vacuum metrology

Interference induced anisotropy in a two-dimensional dark state optical lattice

Author(s)
Ian Spielman, Gediminas Juzeliunas, Edvinas Gvozdiovas
We describe a two-dimensional optical lattice for ultracold atoms with spatial structure below the diffraction limit created by a bichromatic optical standing wave. At every point in space these fields couple the internal atomic states in a three-level

Author(s)
Ling Cai, Randall E. Youngman, David E. Baker, Aram Rezikyan, Minghui Zhang, Bryan Wheaton, Indrajit Dutta, Bruce G. Aitken, Andrew J. Allen
Early stage nucleation in silicate glasses is often evidenced by formation of nanosized regions that are stoichiometrically different from the surrounding matrix. The structural origin of these early stage nucleation sites is of great interest in gaining a

Cesium Substitution Disrupts Concerted Cation Dynamics in Formamidinium Hybrid Perovskites

Eve M. Mozur, Michael A. Hope, Julia C. Trowbridge, David M. Halat, Luke L. Daemen, Annalise E. Maughan, Timothy R Prisk, Clare P. Grey, James R. Neilson
While hybrid perovskites show great promise for photovoltaic applications, several of the most technologically relevant hybrid perovskites degrade rapidly when exposed to water, oxygen, or infrared and ultraviolet radiation. Empirical studies have shown

Anisotropic Spin Fluctuations in Detwinned FeSe

July 1, 2019

Tong Chen, Youzhe Chen, Andreas Kreisel, Xingye Lu, Astrid Schneidewind, Yiming Qiu, J. T. Park, Toby G. Perring, J. Ross Stewart, Huibo Cao, Rui Zhang, Yu Li, Yan Rong, Yuan Wei, Brian M. Andersen, P. J. Hirschfeld, Collin L. Broholm, Pengcheng Dai
Superconductivity in iron selenide (FeSe) emerges from a nematic phase that breaks four-fold rotational symmetry in the iron plane [Fig. 1(a)] [1-4]. Although this phase in FeSe is established below a tetragonal-to-orthorhombic transition temperature Τ s

Defect-Driven Extreme Magnetoresistance in an I-Mn-V Semiconductor

September 20, 2018
Author(s)
Junjie Yang, Aaron Wegner, Craig Brown, Despina Louca
Semiconducting electronics have been transformed in part due to progress in spin polarized transport. Central to modern day spintronics, contemporary magnetoresistive components are based on ferromagnetic multilayers. New directions in the search for the

Resolving Interfacial Charge Transfer in Titanate Superlattices using Resonant X-Ray Reflectometry

September 6, 2018
Author(s)
Ryan F. Need, P. B. Marshall, E. Weschke, Alexander J. Grutter, Dustin Allen Gilbert, E. Arenholz, P. Shafer, S. Stemmer, Stephen D. Wilson
Oxide interfaces, where strong electron-electron correlations lead to emergent phase behavior, have been the subject of intense study in recent years. However, the buried nature of heterointerfaces often makes them challenging to probe directly. Addressing

Weak localization thickness measurements of embedded phosphorus delta layers in silicon produced by PH3 dosing

January 23, 2018
Author(s)
Joseph A. Hagmann, Xiqiao Wang, Pradeep N. Namboodiri, Jonathan E. Wyrick, Roy E. Murray, Michael D. Stewart, Richard M. Silver
The key building blocks for devices based on the deterministic placement of dopants in silicon are the formation of phosphorus dopant monolayers and the overgrowth of high quality crystalline Si. Lithographically defined dopant delta-layers can be formed

High Thermopower with Metallic Conductivity in p-Type Li-Substituted PbPdO 2

May 9, 2016
Author(s)
Leo K. Lamontagne, Geneva Laurita, Michael W. Gaultois, Michael Knight, Leila Ghadbeigi, Taylor D. Sparks, Markus E. Gruner, Rossitza Pentcheva, Craig Brown, Ram Seshadri
PbPdO 2 is a band semiconductor with a band gap arising from the filled d 8 nature of square-planar Pd 2+. We establish that hole doping through Li substitution for Pd in PbPdO 2 results in a p-type metallic oxide with a positive temperature coefficient of

Phase-Sensitive Small-Angle Neutron Scattering

April 1, 2014
Author(s)
Charles F. Majkrzak, Kathryn L. Krycka, Susan Krueger, Norman F. Berk, Paul A. Kienzle, Brian B. Maranville
A method is described for determining the neutron scattering length density distribution of a molecular scale object directly from phase-sensitive small angle neutron scattering (SANS). The structure factor amplitude is obtained through the use of a

Experimental and Thermodynamic Assessment of Phase Equilibria in the Co-Mo system

June 20, 2012

Katsunari Oikawa, Ursula R. Kattner, J. Sato, T. Omori, M. Jang, K. Anzai, Kiyohito Ishida
Phase equilibria of the solid phases in the Co-Mo system were investigated using two-phase alloys and the diffusion couple technique. In addition, systematic studies of phase transformations were conducted by differential scanning calorimetry, and

Graphene Carrier Transport Theory

March 31, 2012
Author(s)
Shaffique Adam
In this chapter we study the mechanisms for carrier transport in two dimensional graphene sheets. We demonstrate that at high carrier density, graphene's transport properties depend both on the type of impurities present and on graphene's screening
