Electrical metrology with single electrons

July 16, 2003
Author(s)
Neil M. Zimmerman, Mark W. Keller
This paper is mostly a review of the progress made at NIST in pursuing a capacitance standard based on the charge of the electron. We briefly introduce the Coulomb blockade, which is the basic physical phenomenon allowing control of single electrons

Database-Assisted Wind Load Capacity Estimates for Low-Rise Steel Frames

December 1, 2002
Author(s)
S Jang, L L. Lu, Fahim H. Sadek, Emil Simiu
A comparative study is presented of the estimated wind load capacities of low-rise steel building frames based on loading patterns (magnitude and distribution) established from aerodynamic databases on the one hand, and on patterns specified in the ASCE 7

Absolute Frequency Measurement of the Iodine-Stabilized He-Ne Laser at 633 nm

January 1, 2001
Author(s)
T H. Yoon, J Ye, John L. Hall, J M. Chartier
The absolute frequency of an iodine-stabilized He-Ne laser at 633 nm stabilized on the I (or a 13) component of the 11-5 R(127) hyperfine transition of the 127I 2molecule is measured using a femtosecond optical comb generator and an iodine-stabilized Nd

Evaluation of Variance in Zeta Potential Measurements

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
M Chapman-Wilbert, S Delagah, J J. Pellegrino
We evaluated sources of varience in the measurement of the surface zeta potential of flat sheet specimens of cellulose di/triacetate membranes with a commercial electrokinetic analyzer. Two measurement methods were evaluated: the instrument's standard
