A Study of the Diurnal in the Transatlantic TWSTFT Difference

September 7, 2013
Author(s)
Victor S. Zhang, Thomas E. Parker
The daily variation (diurnal) in the two-way satellite time and frequency transfer (TWSTFT) difference is one of the most significant instabilities of the TWSTFT technique. The diurnal comes from the daily delay change of the TWSTFT signal paths. In recent

Holographic Radius Test Plates

September 7, 2013
Author(s)
Quandou (. Wang, Johannes A. Soons, Ulf Griesmann
We evaluate a method for testing the radius of spheres with a hologram that consists of a pair of nested Fresnel zone lenses. The hologram is positioned in the collimated test beam of a Fizeau interferometer. The inner zone lens generates a focus at the

Crystalline domain size and faulting in the new NIST SRM 1979 zinc oxide

September 6, 2013
Author(s)
James P. Cline, David R. Black, Albert Henins, John E. Bonevich, Whitfield S. Pam, Paolo Scardi, Matteo Leoni
A NIST SRM certified to address the issue of crystallite size measurement through a line profile analysis has been under development for several years. In order to prepare the feedstock for the SRM, nano-crystalline zinc oxide was produced from thermal

Improvement of Quality in Publication of Experimental Thermophysical Property Data: Challenges, Assessment Tools, Global Implementation, and Online Support

September 6, 2013
Author(s)
Robert D. Chirico, Michael D. Frenkel, Joe W. Magee, Vladimir Diky, Chris D. Muzny, Andrei F. Kazakov, Kenneth G. Kroenlein, Ilmutdin M. Abdulagatov, William E. Acree, Jr., Joan F. Brennecke, Paul L. Brown, Peter T. Cummings, Theodoor W. de Loos, Daniel G. Friend, Anthony R. Goodwin, Lee D. Hansen, William M. Haynes, Nobuyoshi Koga, Andreas Mandelis, K N. Marsh, Paul M. Mathias, Clare McCabe, O'Connell J. P., Agilio Padua, Vicente Rives, Christoph Schick, Martin P. Trusler, Sergey Vyazovkin, Ron D. Weir, Jiangtao Wu
This article describes a 10-year cooperative effort between the U. S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and five major journals in the field of thermophysical and thermochemical properties to improve the quality of published reports of

Fourier Domain Optical Tool Normalization for Quantitative Parametric Image Reconstruction

September 5, 2013
Author(s)
Jing Qin, Richard M. Silver, Bryan M. Barnes, Hui Zhou, Francois R. Goasmat
There has been much recent work in developing advanced optical metrology methods that use imaging optics for critical dimension measurements and defect detection. Sensitivity to nanometer scale changes has been observed when measuring critical dimensions

Functionalization-Dependent Induction of Cellular Survival Pathways by CdSe Quantum Dots in Primary Normal Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells

September 5, 2013
Author(s)
Amber Nagy, Jennifer A. Hollingsworth, Bin Hu, Andrea Steinbruck, Peter C. Stark, Cristina Rios Valdez, Momchilo Vuyisich, Michael H. Stewart, Donald H. Atha, Bryant C. Nelson, Rashi Iyer
Quantum dots (QDs) are semiconductor nanocrystals exhibiting unique optical properties which can be exploited for many practical applications ranging from photovoltaics to biomedical imaging and drug delivery. They are increasingly manufactured in large

Comparison of Publicly Available Methodologies for Development of Geologic Storage Estimates for Carbon Dioxide in Saline Formations

September 4, 2013
Author(s)
Angela Goodman, Grant Bromhal, Brian Strazisar, Traci Rodosta, William F. Guthrie, Doug Allen, George Guthrie
Carbon dioxide storage resource estimates are compared by applying several commonly used methods to general saline formation data sets to assess the impact that the choice of method has on the results. Methods applied include those by 1) ministerial-level

Pneumatically Actuated and Kinematically Positioned Optics Mounts

September 4, 2013
Author(s)
Roger C. Brown, Steven Olmschenk, Wu Saijun, Ari Dyckovsky, Robert Wyllie, James V. Porto
We present two complementary designs of pneumatically actuated and kinematically positioned optics mounts: one designed for vertical mounting and translation, the other designed for horizontal mounting and translation. The design and measured stability
