Resonant X-ray Scattering in Polymer Science

April 1, 2022
Author(s)
Brian Collins, Eliot Gann
Resonant Soft X-ray Scattering (RSoXS) is an emerging, powerful technique to probe the nano-to-mesoscale ordering of polymers and other molecules. It joins together small-angle X-ray scattering (a statistical nanoprobe) with X-ray spectroscopy that brings

The Very Small-Angle Neutron Scattering Instrument at the National Institute of Standards and Technology

April 1, 2022
Author(s)
John Barker, James Moyer, Steven Kline, G. Jensen, Jeremy Cook, Cedric Gagnon, Elizabeth Kelley, Jean Philippe Chabot, Nicholas C. Maliszewskyj, Chirag Parikh, Wangchun Chen, Ryan Murphy, C. Glinka
A description and the performance of the Very Small-Angle Neutron Scattering (VSANS) Diffractometer at the National Institute of Standards and Technology are presented. The measurement range of the instrument extends over three decades of momentum transfer

Hydrogen-Induced Cracking and Blistering in Steels: A Review

March 31, 2022
Author(s)
May Ling Martin, Petros Sofronis
This paper presents a review of the current state of scientific understanding of the corrosion phenomenon known as Hydrogen-Induced Cracking (HIC). HIC is defined as cracking in ferritic steels where cracking is driven by the precipitation of gaseous

Polyoxovanadates as Precursors for the Synthesis of Colloidal Multi-Metal Oxide Nanocrystals

March 31, 2022
Author(s)
Adam Biacchi, Lucas Johnson, Ashley Sweet, Eric Cal, Angela R. Hight Walker, Matthew Buck, Luke Barrante
Colloidal multi-metal oxide nanocrystals that contain the element vanadium are attractive materials for enabling diverse technologies. Few nanocrystal systems are synthetically well-developed, however, which is attributable to a scarcity of molecular

The complete sequence of a human genome

March 31, 2022
Author(s)
Sergey Nurk, Sergey Koren, Arang Rhie, Mikko Rautiainen, Jennifer McDaniel, Nathanael David Olson, Justin Wagner, Justin Zook, Evan Eichler, Karen Miga, Adam Phillippy
Since its initial release in 2000, the human reference genome has covered only the euchromatic fraction of the genome, leaving important heterochromatic regions unfinished. Addressing the remaining 8% of the genome, the Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T)

A small-volume microcapillary rheometer

March 30, 2022
Author(s)
Paul Salipante, Steve Kuei, Steven Hudson
We demonstrate a capillary device used to measure the shear rate dependent viscosity of microliter scale volumes. Liquid samples are driven pneumatically to fill a microcapillary and partially fill a larger glass capillary. The glass capillary is mounted

Federal Research Priorities to Support Wastewater Surveillance for SARS-CoV-2

March 30, 2022
Author(s)

Sally Gutierrez, Nancy Lin, Jessica Sweeney

Almost immediately after the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, researchers and wastewater utilities around the world began analyzing untreated wastewater for the SARS-CoV-2 RNA. These efforts were largely based on prior experience analyzing

Measurements of IP3 and P1dB for Spectrum Monitoring with Software Defined Radios

March 30, 2022
Author(s)
Mike McNulty, Dazhen Gu, Dan Kuester, Payam Nayeri
This paper discusses methodology for characterizing linearity summary parameters of software-defined radio receivers. First, we introduce a highly automated testbed for 1-dB compression point (P1dB) and third-order input intercept point (IIP3). With this

Coherent contributions to population dynamics in a semiconductor microcavity

March 29, 2022
Author(s)
Jagannath Paul, Hendrik Rose, Ethan Swagel, Torsten Meier, Jared Wahlstrand, Alan Bristow
Multidimensional coherent spectroscopy (MDCS) is used to separate coherent and incoherent many-body contributions to the population-time dynamics in a GaAs-based semiconductor microcavity encapsulating a single InGaAs quantum well. In a three-pulse four

Thermal Noise-Limited Laser Stabilization to an 8 mL Volume Fabry-Perot Reference Cavity with Microfabricated Mirrors

March 29, 2022
Author(s)
Charles McLemore, Naijun Jin, Megan Kelleher, James Hendrie, David Mason, Yizhi Luo, Dahyeon Lee, Peter Rakich, Scott Diddams, Franklyn Quinlan
Lasers stabilized to vacuum-gap Fabry-Perot optical reference cavities display extraordinarily low noise and high stability, with linewidths much less than 1 Hz. These lasers can expand into new applications and ubiquitous use with the development of

Picosecond-resolution single-photon time lens for temporal mode quantum processing

March 28, 2022
Author(s)
Chaitali Joshi, Ben Sparkes, Alessandro Farsi, Thomas Gerrits, Sae Woo Nam, Varun Verma, Sven Ramelow, Alex Gaeta
Techniques to control the spectro-temporal properties of quantum states of light at ultrafast time scales are crucial for several applications in quantum information science. In this work, we report an all-optical time lens based on Bragg-scattering four

Reassessing the Significance of Reduced Aggregation and Crystallinity of Naphthalene Diimide-Based Copolymer Acceptors in All-Polymer Solar Cells

March 28, 2022
Author(s)
Eliot Gann, Christopher McNeill, Doan Vu, Martyn Jervic, Chao Wang, Lars Thomsen, Mats Andersson
Terpolymerization is a facile and effective strategy to control the aggregation and crystallinity of semiconducting polymers which has been exploited to improve the photovoltaic performance of all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs). Applying this strategy to
