Horizontal Growth and In Situ Assembly of Oriented Zinc Oxide Nanowires

October 1, 2004
Author(s)
Babak Nikoobakht, Chris A. Michaels, Stephan J. Stranick, Mark D. Vaudin
The positioning and directed assembly of semiconductor nanowires (NWs) is of considerable current interest for bottom-up approaches to the engineering of intricate structures from nanoscale building blocks. We report a horizontal growth mode for ZnO NWs on

Steady Melting in Material Extrusion Additive Manufacturing

July 5, 2023
Author(s)
Austin Colon, David Kazmer, Amy Peterson, Jonathan Seppala
Purpose One of the main causes of defects within material extrusion additive manufacturing is the non-isothermal condition in the hot end, which leads to inconsistent extrusion and weld healing. This work validates a custom hot end design intended to melt

Smart City Standardization: A Global Perspective

November 1, 2025
Author(s)
William Dunaway, Cheyney O'Fallon
The Global Community Technology Challenge (GCTC) is the smart cities program of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the U.S. Department of Commerce. Since its formation in 2014, the GCTC has built an international partnership of

China's Manufacturing Innovation Centers: A Benchmarking Report for the Manufacturing USA Network

May 5, 2025
Author(s)
Michael Molnar, Kelley Rogers, Frank Gayle, Susan Ipri-Brown, Mai Tran, Joseph Long, Clifton Ray, Albert Shih, Douglas Thomas
This review of China's Manufacturing Innovation Centers (MICs) describes the status of the country's flagship manufacturing innovation program. At least 33 MICs have been established to date, suggesting that China is within reach of its goal of 40 MICs by

Demonstration of Immunity to 400 *C Forming Gas Annealing in Oxide Semiconductor Transistor via PostMetallization Annealing

March 18, 2025
Author(s)
Yu-Hsin Kuo, Dylan J. Matthews, Shinichiro N. Muramoto, TaeYoung Song, Chengyang Zhang, Xianduo Zhao, Md S. Rahman, Sanghyun Kang, Andres S. Aguirre, Seung M. Lee, Daewon Ha, Sourav Dutta, Theodore Moise, Jayakanth Ravichandran, Shimeng Yu, Alexander Grutter, Suman Datta, Tania Roy, Asif I. Khan
Hydrogen-based annealing processes like forming gas annealing (FGA), widely used in back-end-ofline (BEOL) fabrication, can severely impact the threshold voltage (VTH) and subthreshold swing (SS) stability of amorphous oxide semiconductor (AOS) transistors

Hot isostatic pressing (HIP) to achieve isotropic microstructure and retain as-built strength in additive manufacturing titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V)

September 23, 2019
Author(s)
Jake T. Benzing, Nikolas W. Hrabe, Timothy P. Quinn, Ryan M. White, Ross A. Rentz, Magnus Ahlfors
Hot isostatic pressing (HIP) treatments are used to seal internal porosity because defects exist in as-built Ti-6Al-4V parts produced by electron beam melting powder bed fusion. Standard HIP treatment of Ti-6Al-4V parts reduces internal porosity but
