Controlling Impact Mitigation via Stimuli-Responsive Bouligand Nanostructures

May 16, 2025
Author(s)
Sujin Lee, Katherine Evans, Jeremiah Woodcock, Jan Obrzut, Liping Huang, Christopher Soles, Edwin Chan
Critical to their survival, natural organisms have developed exoskeletons that can withstand and inflict damage over their lifetime. The Bouligand structure of the exoskeleton plays a key role in toughness and damage resistance under external impacts

Derivation of particle number concentration from the size distribution: theory and applications

May 16, 2025
Author(s)
Natalia Farkas, John A. Kramar, Antonio Montoro Bustos, George Caceres, Monique Johnson, Matthias Roesslein, Elijah Petersen
The particle number concentration (PNC) in a suspension is a key measurand in nanotechnology. A common approach for deriving PNC is to divide the total mass concentration by the per-particle mass, calculated as density times volume. The volume is most

Multi-color solitons and frequency combs in microresonators

May 15, 2025
Author(s)
Curtis Menyuk, Pradyoth Shandilya, Logan Courtright, Gregory Moille, Kartik Srinivasan
Multi-color solitons that are parametrically created in dual-pumped microresonators generate interleaved frequency combs that be used to obtain combs at new frequencies and when synchronized can be used for low-noise microwave generation and potentially as

Scattering Insights into Shear-Induced Scission of Rod-like Micelles

May 15, 2025
Author(s)
Guan-Rong Huang, Ryan Murphy, Lionel Porcar, Chi-Huan Tung, Changwoo Do, Wei-Ren Chen
Hypothesis: Understanding the scission of rod-like micelles under mechanical forces is crucial for optimizing their stability and behavior in industrial applications. This study investigates how micelle length, flexibility, and external forces interact

NIST Special Publication 260 NIST.SP.260-256 Certification of Standard Reference Material(R)s 3672a & 3673a: Organic Contaminants in Smokers' Urine (Frozen) & Organic Contaminants in Non-Smokers' Urine (Frozen)

May 14, 2025
Author(s)
Ashley Russell, Carolyn Burdette, Johanna Camara, Nathanael Heckert, Jennifer Hoguet, Kevin Huncik, Jared Ragland, Elena Wood
Standard Reference Material (SRM) 3672a Organic Contaminants in Smokers' Urine (Frozen) and SRM 3673a Organic Contaminants in Non-Smokers' Urine (Frozen) are intended for use in evaluating analytical methods for the determination of selected naturally

On-Chip Parametric Synchronization of a Cavity Soliton Microcomb

May 13, 2025
Author(s)
Gregory Moille, Pradyoth Shandilya, Miro Erkintalo, Curtis Menyuk, Kartik Srinivasan
Synchronization of oscillators is ubiquitous in nature. Often, the synchronized oscillators couple directly, yet in some cases synchronization can arise from their parametric interactions. Here, we theoretically predict and experimentally demonstrate the

Selecting longitudinal community outcomes for resilience indicator validation

May 13, 2025
Author(s)
Donghwan Gu, Maria Dillard, Michael Gerst, Jarrod Loerzel
Assessing community resilience is a long-sought goal in multiple fields of study and practice. Community resilience frameworks have been designed to estimate the level of resilience through varying sets of cross-sectional indicators. However, community

Universal electronic synthesis by microresonator-soliton photomixing

May 13, 2025
Author(s)
Jizhao Zang, Travis Briles, Jesse Morgan, Andreas Beling, Scott Papp
Access to electrical signals across the millimeter-wave (mmW) and terahertz (THz) bands offers breakthroughs for high-performance applications. Despite generations of revolutionary development, integrated electronics are challenging to scale at 100-1000

Supporting Production Consistency for Cement

May 12, 2025
Author(s)
Aron Newman, Cody Strack
Concrete is the second most used substance in the world after water. Concrete manufacturers produce 14 billion cubic meters annually, with a market size of $440 billion. The concrete industry is developing new technologies to decrease its carbon footprint

A Fully Registered In-Situ and Ex-Situ Dataset for Metal Powder Bed Fusion Additive Manufacturing: Data Processing, Feature Extraction, Registration, and Uncertainties

May 8, 2025
Author(s)
Zhuo Yang, Yan Lu, Ho Yeung, Brandon Lane, Nicole Van Handel
This document details the data registration process for the previously published datasets from Additive Manufacturing Metrology Testbed (AMMT) parts, "Overhang Part X4," generated at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The two datasets —one

Reconfigurable All-Nitride Magneto-Ionics

May 7, 2025
Author(s)
Zhijie Chen, Christopher Jensen, Chen Liu, Yijing Liu, Christy Kinane, Andrew Caruana, Alexander Grutter, Julie Borchers, Xixiang Zhang, Kai Liu
The rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence has significantly increased the demand for both energy and data storage. Voltage control of magnetism has emerged as a potential solution to reduce energy consumption in nanoelectronics. Magneto

Top-Down Scoring of Spectral Fitness by Image Analysis for Protein Structure Validation

May 6, 2025
Author(s)
Benjamin Harding, Barry DeZonia, Rajat Garg, Ziling Hu, Frank Delaglio, Tim Grant, Chad Rienstra
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a powerful technique for protein structure determination, but traditional approaches require extensive manual assignment of hundreds to thousands of resonances. Here we present NMRFAM-BPHON, a novel "top

Broadband Optoelectronic Mixer for Terahertz Frequency-Comb Measurements

May 5, 2025
Author(s)
Jizhao Zang, Jesse Morgan, Andreas Beling, Scott Papp
We demonstrate ultra-broadband optoelectronic mixing of frequency combs that provides phase-coherent detection of a repetition frequency up to 500 GHz, using a high-speed modified uni-traveling carrier (MUTC) photodiode. Nonlinear photo-electron effects in
