Fluorescence Anistropy Measurements of Oriented Polymers

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Anthony J. Bur, S C. Roth
Fluorescence anistropy area scans of sheet and film specimens have been carried out using a fiber optic sensor that contains polarizing optical elements. Measurements on polyethylene terephthalate food packaging, which contains the fluorescent dye

Forum Report: Permissive Metric Only Labeling

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Kenneth S. Butcher
Report on the Forum on Metric-only Labeling held on November 7, 2002, in Washington, DC. The National Institute of Standards and Technology and the National Conference on Weights and Measures sponsored this forum to initiate a joint effort to eliminate

Fourier Instrumentation for Radiation Thermometry

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
F J. Dunmore
A miniature Fourier transform spectrometer (MFTS) has been tested as a device for remotely measuring the temperature of a high-stability/emissivity blackbody. The commercially manufactured device is based on the novel design of a polarizing Wollaston prism

Fractographic Failure Analysis of a Broken Tooth Following Larnygoscopy

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Janet Quinn, L W. Schultheis
ckground: A tooth broken subsequent to laryngoscopy was fractographically analyzed. The science of fractography involves examination of fracture surfaces to determine information such as failure causes, crack progressions, and stress configurations.Case

Fracture Modes in Brittle Coatings With Large Interlayer Modulus Mismatch

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Herzl Chai, Brian R. Lawn, S Wuttiphan
Fracture modes in a model glass/polymer coating/substrate system indented with hard spheres are investigated. The large modulus mismatch between the glass and polymer results in distinctive transverse fracture modes in the brittle coating: exaggerated

Fracture of Silicate Glasses: Ductile or Brittle?

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
J -. Guin, Sheldon M. Wiederhorn
Atomic force microscopy is used to investigate the possibility of crack tip cavitation during crack growth in silicate glasses. Matching areas on both surfaces of a crack were mapped and then compared for soda-lime silicate glass and for silica glass. For

From Stable Lasers to Optical-Frequency Clocks

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
John L. Hall, Jun Ye, L -. Ma, J L. Peng, M Notcutt, J D. Jost, A Marian
This is a report on behalf of the World Tema of Stable Laser and Optical Frequency Measurement Enthusiasts, even if most detailed illustrations draw mainly from our work at JILA. Specifically we trace some of the key ideas that have led from the first

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
H I. McHenry
The technical activities of the Materials Reliability Division during Fiscal year 1998 are summarized. The Division has eighteen research projects in five program areas: Metals Processing (3), Ultrasonic Characterization of Materials (9), Electronic

FY 2001 Programs and Accomplishments - Materials for Microelectronics

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Frank W. Gayle
Today's U.S. microelectronics and supporting infrastructure industries are in fierce international competition to design and produce new smaller, lighter, faster, more functional, and more reliable electronics products more quickly and economically than
