Archaeological glasses with prolonged exposure to biogeochemical processes in the environment can be used to understand glass alteration, which is important for the safe disposal of vitrified nuclear waste. Samples of mafic and felsic glasses with

On-Wafer Vector-Network-Analyzer Measurements at mK Temperatures

January 11, 2023
Author(s)
Elyse McEntee Wei, Richard Chamberlin, Nate Kilmer, Joshua Kast, Jake A. Connors, Dylan Williams
We describe a system for performing on-wafer vector-network-analyzer measurements from 100 MHz to 15 GHz at mK temperatures (i.e., less than 20 mK). We first demonstrate a camera-less probe positioning system and calibrate this system at 4.4 K. We then use

This article is the second of three projected IUPAC Technical Reports on reference materials for phase equilibrium studies. The goal of this project was to select reference systems with critically evaluated property values for the verification of

What does the pixel measure?

January 11, 2023
Author(s)
David W. Flater
The pixel is often used as a unit of measurement in information technology. Unfortunately, there is not a simple, consistently-applicable answer to what it is a measure of. This report analyzes the pixel unit through the lens of metrology and shows how one

Geometrical Frustration Versus Kitaev Interactions in BaCo 2 (AsO 4 ) 2

Chongyin Yang, Jiale Xia, Chunyu Cui, Travis P. Pollard, Jenel Vatamanu, Antonio Faraone, Joseph Dura, Madhu Sudan N. Tyagi, Alex Kattan, Elijah Thimsen, Jijian Xu, Wentao Song, Enyuan Hu, Xiao Ji, Singyuk Hou, Xiyue Zhang, Michael S. Ding, Sooyeon Hwang, Dong Su, Yang Ren, Xiao-Qing Yang, Howard Wang, Oleg Borodin, Chunsheng Wang
Solvent-in-salt electrolytes have revolutionized both aqueous and non-aqueous batteries by extending the electrochemical stability window 1,2,3 and enabling new battery chemisties 4-6. However, the presence of both anions and solvent in the cation

Entropy Scaling of Viscosity for Molecular Models of Molten Salts

January 9, 2023
Author(s)
Jeffrey Young, Ian Bell, Allan H. Harvey
Entropy scaling relates dynamic and thermodynamic properties by reducing the viscosity to be a function of only the residual entropy. Molecular simulations are used to investigate the entropy scaling of the viscosity of three models of sodium chloride and

Nanoscale Bending Dynamics in Mixed-Chain Lipid Membranes

January 9, 2023
Author(s)
Elizabeth Kelley, Moritz Frewein, Orsolya Czakkel, Michihiro Nagao
Lipids that have two tails of different lengths are found throughout biomembranes in nature, yet the effects of this asymmetry on the membrane properties, are not well understood, especially when it comes to the membrane dynamics. Here we study the

Photonic Online Learning: A Perspective

January 9, 2023
