We demonstrate a significant improvement in signal-to-noise ratio in coherent anti stokes Raman Scattering (CARS) spectroscopy/microscopy, using two highly synchronized picosecond Ti: sapphire lasers. A temporal jitter between the pulse trains from the two

Assembled here are the publications of NIST Electron Beam Ion Trap (EBIT) project, from its inception through the end of 2001. They are grouped thematically, as indicated in the table of contents. In order to address some of the most frequently asked

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the feasibility of using a calcium phosphate cement (CPC) in the reconstruction of a defective alveolar ridge in conjunction with implant placement. The CPC consisted of an equimolar amount of tetracalcium
The proper curing of concrete is paramount to achieving desired strength and durability performance in the field. Because blending components often react at different rates from portland cement, blended cements may require that special attention be paid to
An interlaboratory comparison has been undertaken of X-ray and photoluminescence measurements of InGaAsP on InP. Six 1 cm 2 specimens are being measured, with nominal photoluminescence wavelengths of 1.1, 1.3 and 1.5 υm (2 of each). Preliminary maps of the
Laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) has been applied to examine the filler particles and their distribution in BaTiO3-polymer composite films. We have measured thin-slice images of the composite films at various depths from the film surface and
Total ionization cross sections of neutral carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms by electron impact are presented. In our theory we have included possibilities that (a) some target atoms used in an experiment were in metastable state close to the ground state

The stable nitroxide radicals, such as 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinoxyl (TPO) and 4-OH-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinoxyl (TPL), are potent antioxidants and among the most effective non-thiol radioprotectants, although the reported rate constants of their
A method for multiscale modeling of point defects such as vacnacies and interstitials at the atomistic level and extended defects such as free surfaces and interfaces at the macroscopic continuum level in a solid is described. The method is based upon the
We investigate the shape dependence of the scattering by dielectric and metallic particles on surfaces by considering particles whose free-space scattering properties are nearly identical. The scattering by metallic particles is very strongly dependent

Residential and commercial gaseous air cleaning technologies have not gained wide acceptance in the marketplace, in part due to the lack of performance data from field tests or simulation studies. This paper describes a field study of the performance of
This paper describes studies of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry of polyethylene using metal powder as the matrix where initimate polymer/matrix mixing is not necessary.
This entry discusses briefly basic principles of extreme value (EV) estimation (see Extreme value analysis), the role of simulations for the development of relevant meteorological data sets, the interaction between the practical application of the

Multizone airflow and contaminant transport modeling is a valuable tool for researchers and others studying indoor air quality (IAQ) problems in buildings. Although water vapor is not typically thought of as an indoor contaminant, multizone IAQ modeling
NIST is responsible to U.S. industry for developing length intensive measurement capabilities and calibration standards in the nanometer scale regime. The Nanometer-Scale Metrology Program is an integrated Manufacturing Engineering Laboratory program
Numerical and experimental methods are used to investigate the effectiveness of infrared thermography to estimate the width of subsurface flaws in fiber-reinforce polymer (FRP) laminates bonded to concrete. The study focuses on establishing the potential
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) offers a variety of hundreds of measurement services to its customers as a part of it's core mission. These services include reference data, reference materials, and physical measurements and
Knowledge of the thermophysical properties is essential for the evaluation of alternative refrigerants and the design of equipment using them. The REFPROP computer database from the National Institute of Standards and Technology has been one of the more
We describe a new, efficient approach to the imposition of exact nonreflecting boundary conditions for the scalar wave equation. We compare the performance of our approach with that of existing methods by coupling the boundary conditions to finite

Spectra were recorded in the H-F stretching region for both O2-HF and O2-DF, using a laser difference-frequency spectrometer coupled to a slit-nozzle expansion. By varying the ratio of oxygen to carrier gas, beam temperatures ranging from 5 to 16 K could

To ascertain the role of bromination in the recovery of superconductivity in underdoped YBa 2Cu 3O 6+y (YBCO) we have performed polarized multiple-edge x-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) measurements on normal (y nearly equal to} 0.6) and brominated

To understand the role of bromination in the recovery of superconductivity in underdoped YBCO, the spatially resolved local structural changes in brominated single crystals have been measured and compared to those in a normal crystal. In polarized x-ray
We present the results of an experiment to observe inhibited spontaneous emission of a parametric downconverter by an optical cavity whose switching time is short compared with the round trip time of the light.
