Blueprint for Radioanalytical Metrology CRM's

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Kenneth G. Inn, Hiromu Kurosaki, Carole Frechou, Chris Gilligan, Robert Jones, Stephen LaMont, Jeff Leggitt, Chunsheng Li, Keith McCroan, Ronald Swatski
In 1977, the International Committee on Radionuclide Metrology's (ICRM) Low-Level Working Group (LLWG) workshop, a long-term blueprint for a new series of natural-matrix reference materials was developed. Over the ensuing decades national and social issues

CAB Monitoring Data 2001

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
J S. Dhillon
NIST is a designating authority under two government-to-government agreements on the mutual recognition of conformity assessment results in regulated sectors. As such, NIST is responsible for designating U.S. conformity assessment bodies that are competent

Calculation of Hydrogenic Bethe Logarithms for Rydberg States

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
U Jentschura, Peter J. Mohr
We describe the calculation of hydrogenic (one-loop) Bethe logarithms for all states with principal quantum numbers n 200. While the calculation of the Bethe logarithm is a rather easy computational problem involving only the nonrelativistic a (Schr'dinger

Calibration of a Spectral Responsivity Transfer Standard

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
George P. Eppeldauer, Leonard Hanssen
A NIST-Developed pryoelectric radiometer was characterized and calibrated to extend the NIST high accuracy spectral responsively scale from the visible range to the ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR). The transmission of the gold-black coated LiNbO 3

Calibration of Water Permeation Tubes

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Gregory E. Scace, W. Wyatt Miller
NIST provides traceability of permeation tube humidity generators to national humidity standards by measuring the water permeation rate of permeation tubes submitted for calibration. Permeation tubes undergoing calibration are installed into a specially

Calorimetric Analysis of Mutagenic Effects on Protein-Ligand Interactions

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Frederick P. Schwarz
Mutagenesis effects can be classified into direct where the mutation occurs at the site of the binding interaction on the protein and indirect where the mutation occurs at a site distal from the binding interaction site. The interaction between the Fv

Carrier-Envelope Phase of Ultrashort Pulses

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Steven T. Cundiff, F Krausz
The phase of the electromagnetic field has typically not been a quantity of physical meaning in optics because all I measurements are of intensity.Relative phases, for example between two arms of an interferometer, can readily be measured and controlled

Cellular DNA Biomarkers for the Safety of Tissue-Engineered Medical Products Using Artificial Skin as a Model

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
H Rodriguez, C D. O'Connell, Peter E. Barker, M. Dizdaroglu, Donald H. Atha, Pawel Jaruga, M Birincioglu, M A. Marino, P McAndrew
Fundamental to the safety of many tissue-engineered medical products is how cells respond to a given polymer when implanted into the body. Assurance of cellular stability during the manufacturing, storage and shipment of such products is crucial to achieve

Challenges of Paradigm Building for Solid-State Transformations

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
John W. Cahn
Our field, solid-sold phase transformations, grew out of ancient crafts with their own paradigms. The creation of new paradigms has been a slow process with many false starts. Much remains to be done. An examination of the successes and failures of the

Chapter I. Overview of Polymer Blends Characterization

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Charles C. Han
Characterization techniques for polymers have been discussed in literature. Normally these techniques are categorized in terms of mechanical testing methods, thermal analysis, electron and optical microscopy, nmr techniques, chromatographic methods

Characterization of Dendritically Branched Polymers by SANS, SAXS, and TEM

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Barry J. Bauer, Eric J. Amis
Small angle neutron scattering (SANS), small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) have been used to characterize the size, shape and interactions of dendrimers, hyperbranched, and dendrigraft polymers. Size in terms of

Characterization of Nanoporous Low-K Thin Films by SANS Contrast Variation

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
R C. Hedden, Hae-Jeong Lee, Barry J. Bauer
Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) contrast variation is applied to characterization of nanoporous low-dielectric constant (low-k) thin films. Films are exposed to saturated solvent vapor in air, whereby the pores fill with liquid by capillary

Characterization of the Alloy-Solution Interface

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
H J. Mueller
For metals undergoing corrosion, a layer of water molecules becomes charged due to electrons accumulating on the outer metal surface and hydrated positive ions in solution adjacent to the surface. The layer has properties of capacitance (C dl) and

Characterization of UV-Induced Radiation Damage to Si-based Photodiodes

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Keith R. Lykke, Ping-Shine Shaw, J L. Dehmer, R Gupta
We have made direct measurements of the internal quantum efficiency and the reflectivity of UV-damaged silicon photodiodes in the spectral range of 120 nm to 320 nm. The above qualities, coupled with absolute spectral responsivities, give unique

Charge and Spin Excitations in Double-Layer Manganites

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
D B. Romero, V B. Podobedov, A Weber, J.F. Mitchell, Y Moritomo, H D. Drew
Charge and spin dynamics in La 2-2xSr 1+2xMn 2O 7 (x=0.4,0.5) are probed by magneto-Raman spectroscopy. A competition between charge-order, antiferromagnetic superexchange and ferromagnetic double-exchange correlations characterize a regime of short-range

Charge Nucleation and Wear on Mica Surfaces

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
J Batteas
The area of nanotribology has advanced greatly in the past 17 years with the introduction of scanned probe microscopies for the characterization of surface properties. The ability to probe the details of structure, friction and adhesion on a local atomic
