Edge-state Transport in Graphene p-n Junctions in the Quantum Hall Regime

December 7, 2015
Author(s)
Nikolai Klimov, Son T. Le, Jun Yan, Pratik Agnihotri, Everett Comfort, Ji Ung Lee, David B. Newell, Curt A. Richter
We experimentally investigate charge carrier transport in a graphene p-n junction device by using independent p-type and n-type electrostatic gating which allow full characterization of the junction interface in the quantum Hall regime covering a wide

Chemical Kinetics and Fire

An MSEL Sustainability Seminar Series took place in 2009, aimed at the following goals: (1) to introduce this important subject matter to our staff and (2) to learn and discuss the metrology needs for materials for sustainability applications. Since

Diffraction study of the retained austenite content in TRIP steels

January 19, 2011
Author(s)
Thomas H. Gnaupel-Herold, Adam Abel Creuziger
The results of a study of using neutron diffraction for determining the retained austenite content of TRIP steels are presented. The study covers a wide area of materials, deformation modes (uniaxial, biaxial and plane strain), strains, and the retained

NIST 49. CYCLE_D: NIST Vapor Compression Cycle Design Program

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Joan C. Sauerwein
The CYCLE_D database package simulates the vapor compression refrigeration cycles using the 38 pure fluids and mixtures covered by the well-known and widely-used NIST Standard Reference Database 23 - NIST Thermodynamic Properties of Refrigerants and

NIST Data Gateway

Author(s)
D M. Blakeslee, Angela Y. Lee, A J. Belsky, John E. Fuller III
The NIST Data Gateway is a web portal that provides easy access to NIST Standard Reference Data, which cover a broad range of substances and properties from many different scientific disciplines. Users can search for specific keywords, properties, and

Cold Chain Storage of Vaccines: A Brief Introduction to Thermometry

September 1, 2008
Author(s)
Dean C. Ripple
To maintain the efficacy of vaccines requires maintaining the storage temperature within well-defined limits; vaccine failure due to improper storage results in large direct and indirect public health costs. In this presentation, I give a brief

Latent Fingerprint Performance Modeling

January 14, 2008
Author(s)
Vladimir N. Dvornychenko
This paper describes aspects of work done at NIST, in concert with the latent fingerprint community, toward achieving a partial lights-out latent fingerprint processing capability. The initial steps are to quantify performance over a cross-section of

Growth of superconducting single crystals

Author(s)
Debra L. Kaiser, L.F. Schneemeyer
This manuscript is a review of single crystal growth of high temperature superconducting materials. The introductory sections cover fundamentals of crystal growth with emphasis on special considerations for superconducting compounds, and the growth

A 193 nm Laser Detector Nonlinearity Measurement System

January 1, 2003
Author(s)
Darryl A. Keenan, Holger Laabs, Shao Yang, Marla L. Dowell
To meet the semiconductor industry's demands for accurate measurements, we have developed a method to characterize the nonlinear response of 193 nm excimer laser detectors. This system is complimentary to our other excimer laser power and energy

Intermolecular Potential and Second Virial Coefficient of the Water-Helium Complex

January 1, 2002
Author(s)
M P. Hodges, R J. Wheatley, Allan H. Harvey
A potential-energy surface for the water-helium complex is constructed from scaled perturbation theory calculations, and calibrated using accurate supermolecule methods. At the global minimum, the helium atom lies in the plane of the water molecule with an

Analysis of Thin Layer Structures by X-Ray Reflectometry

July 1, 2001
Author(s)
R Deslattes, R J. Mayti
The well-established structural methods of X-ray specular and diffuse scattering are less widely used in semiconductor metrology than their capababilities would suggest. We describe some technical enhancements that make these highly useful tools even more

Some Physics and Chemistry of Hot-Wire Deposition

July 1, 2001
Author(s)
Alan Gallagher
Although hot-wire chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD) involves far fewer species than plasma enhanced CVD, I have used some physics and chemistry in the title because less is known than unknown regarding the hot-wire deposition processes, in even pure silane
