Examining Generalizability of AI Models for Catalysis

June 7, 2025
Author(s)
Kamal Choudhary, Shih Han Wang, Hongliang Xin, Luke Achenie
In this work, we investigate the generalizability of problem-specific machine-learning models for catalysis across different datasets and adsorbates, and examine the potential of unified models as pre-screening tools for density functional theory

We have fabricated all-thin-film solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) heterostructures and investigated the transport properties of Sm0.2Ce0.8O2-δ (SDC20) in an out-of-plane measurement geometry. The SOFC heterostructures, consisting of a bottom SrRuO3 (SRO) or

Implications of the Bullet Black Box Study

June 5, 2025
Author(s)
Bullet Black Box Working Group
The Bullet Black Box Working Group (BulletBB-WG) was convened to review the results of the NIST-Noblis Bullet Black Box Study, and assess the implications of that study on casework. This report includes the recommendations of the BulletBB-WG on how to

Metrics and Methodology for Hardware Security Constructs

June 5, 2025
Author(s)
Sanjay Rekhi, Kostas Amberiadis, Abir Ahsan Akib, Ankur Srivastava
Although hardware is commonly believed to be security-resilient, it is often susceptible to vulnerabilities arising from design and implementation flaws. These flaws have the potential to jeopardize not only the hardware's security, but also its operations

Anomalous Hall Effect Emerging from Field-Induced Weyl Nodes in SmAlSi

June 4, 2025
Author(s)
Yuxiang Gao, Shiming Lei, Eleanor Clememts, Yichen Zhang, Xue-Jian Gao, Songxue Chi, Kam Law, Ming Yi, Jeffrey Lynn, Emilia Morosan
The intrinsic anomalous Hall effect (AHE) has been reported in numerous ferromagnetic Weyl semimetals. However, the AHE in the antiferromagnetic (AFM) or paramagnetic (PM) state of Weyl semimetals has rarely been observed experimentally. Different

Picosecond Josephson samplers: Modeling and measurements

June 4, 2025
Author(s)
Logan Howe, Bart van Zeghbroeck, David Olaya, John Biesecker, Charles Burroughs, Peter Hopkins, Samuel Benz
Measurement of signals generated by superconducting Josephson junction (JJ) circuits require ultra-fast components located in close proximity to the generating circuitry. We report a detailed study of optimal design criteria for a JJ-based sampler that

Jiahui Zhang, Runbo Jiang, Kangming Li, Pengyu Chen, Xiao Shang, Zhiying Liu, Brian Simonds, Qianglong Wei, Hongze Wang, Jason Hattrick-Simpers, Tao Sun, Anthony Rollet, Yu Zou
A primary obstacle impeding the use of metal additive manufacturing technologies in fatigue-sensitive applications is the presence of porosity, primarily caused by keyhole instability. To tackle this challenge, it is imperative to accurately forecast

Artificial Intelligence in the Fire Service: Considerations for Implementing Artificial Intelligence into Electronic Safety Equipment

June 3, 2025
Author(s)
Christopher Sampl, Clinton Smith, Albert Bahri, David Little, Richard Reel, Ash Liu, Jonathan Hodges, Ryan Falkenstein-Smith
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming more pervasive in society, including public safety. There is a growing need for safety guidelines as AI becomes more integrated within electronic safety products used within the fire service. A group comprised of
