Self-terminated Electrodeposition of Iridium Electrocatalysts

September 16, 2015
Author(s)
Thomas P. Moffat
A simple electrochemical process for submonolayer deposition of ultrathin catalytic iridum (Ir) films is demonstrated. The process enables effective utilization of one of nature’s rarest elements while different substrates facilitate the exploration of

Stress in Aluminum Induced by Hydrogen Absorption during Cathodic Polarization

September 16, 2015
Author(s)
Gery R. Stafford, Jae W. Shin, Kurt Hebert
The hydrogen concentration in metals during aqueous corrosion is influenced by the kinetics of hydrogen absorption. Measurements of absorption kinetics are challenged by competing gas evolution and corrosion processes. However, in situ measurements of

Certification of Standard Reference Material 1976b

September 15, 2015
Author(s)
David R. Black, Donald A. Windover, Marcus H. Mendenhall, Albert Henins, James J. Filliben, James P. Cline
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) certifies a suite of Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) to address specific aspects of the performance of X-ray powder diffraction instruments. This report describes SRM 1976b, the third generation

Efficient Quantum State Transfer in an Engineered Chain of Quantum Bits

September 15, 2015
Author(s)
Emanuel Knill, Michael Vissers, David P. Pappas, Martin Sandberg
Here we present a method of performing quantum state transfer in a chain of superconducting quantum bits. Our protocol is based on the engineerability of the energy levels of superconducting quantum systems. This, together with the tunability of the

Exploring Model-Based Engineering Concepts for Additive Manufacturing

September 15, 2015
Author(s)
Robert R. Lipman, Jeremy S. McFarlane
Robust geometry and tolerance representations are needed in additive manufacturing for precise part specification and interoperability with downstream activities such as manufacturing, inspection, and long-term archiving. A disconnection exists between

Extreme expression of DNA repair protein apurinic/apyrimi-dinic endonuclease I (APE1) in human breast cancer as measured by liquid-chromatography isotope-dilution tandem mass spectrometry

September 15, 2015
Author(s)
Erdem Coskun, Pawel Jaruga, Prasad T. Reddy, Miral M. Dizdar
Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) is a DNA re-pair protein and plays other important roles. Increased lev-els of APE1 in cancer have been reported. However, avail-able methods to measure APE1 levels are indirect and not quantitative. We

Extreme Expressions of DNA Repair Proteins APE1 and MTH1, in Human Breast Cancer as Measured by Liquid Chromatography and Isotope Dilution Tandem Mass Spectrometry

September 15, 2015
Author(s)
Erdem Coskun, Pawel Jaruga, Leona D. Scanlan, Alessandro Tona, Mark S. Lowenthal, Prasad T. Reddy, M Miral Dizdar, Ann-Sofie Jemth, Olga Loseva, Thomas Helleday
Accurate measurement of DNA repair proteins in cancer tissues is becoming more important due to the individual and origin based expression differences in cancer patients as well as the novel approach of using the repair enzyme inhibitors in cancer

Spin Jam Induced by Quantum Fluctuations in a Frustrated Magnet

September 15, 2015
Author(s)
Junjie Yang, Anjana Samarakoon, Sachith Dissanayake, Hiroaki Ueda, Israel Klich, Daniel M Pajerowski, Nicholas Butch, Qingzhen Huang, John R. Copley, Seung-Hun Lee
Since the discovery of spin glasses in dilute magnetic systems, their study has been largely focused on understanding randomness and defects as the driving mechanisms. However, it has been theoretically suggested that different mechanism. However, it has

Tattoo Recognition Technology - Challenge (Tatt-C): Outcomes and Recommendations

September 15, 2015
Author(s)
Mei L. Ngan, George W. Quinn, Patrick J. Grother
Tattoos have been used for many years to assist law enforcement in investigations leading to the identification of both criminals and victims. A tattoo is an elective biometric trait that contains additional discriminative information to support person

THE COMPELLING CASE FOR INDENTATION AS A FUNCTIONAL EXPLORATORY AND CHARACTERIZATION TOOL

September 15, 2015
Author(s)
Robert F. Cook, David B. Marshall, Nitin P. Padture, Michelle L. Oyen, Antonia Pajares, Jodie E. Bradby, Ivar E. Reimanis, Rajan Tandon, Trevor F. Page, George M. Pharr, Brian R. Lawn
The utility of indentation testing for characterizing a wide range of mechanical properties of brittle materials is highlighted in light of recent articles questioning its validity, specifically in relation to the measurement of toughness. Contrary to
