Two-Species Magneto-Optical Trap With 40 K and 87 Rb

January 1, 2002
Author(s)
J Goldwin, S Papp, B. L. DeMarco, D S. Jin
We trap and cool a gas composed of 40K and 87 Rb, using a two-species magneto-optical trap (MOT). This trap represents the first step towards cooling the Bose-Fermi mixture to quantum degeneracy. Laser light for the MOT is derived from laser diodes and

Unexpected Ground State Structures in Relaxor Ferroelectrics

January 1, 2002
Author(s)
Benjamin P. Burton, Eric J. Cockayne
Cluster expansion Hamiltonians derived from pseudopotential total energies were used to predict ground-state (GS) cation configurations for some A(B^{3+}1⁄2B'^{5+}1⁄2)O3, A(B^{2+}{1/3}B'^{5+}{2/3})O3 , and [A^{1+}1⁄2A'^{3+}1⁄2]BO3 perovskites. Predicted GS

Uniformity Studies of Congruent LiNbO 3 by Means of Maker Fringe Analysis

January 1, 2002
Author(s)
Norman Sanford, J A. Aust
Nonlinear optical analysis was used to map the uniformity of LiNbO 3 wafers in terms of birefringence, composition, thickness and strain. Birefringence variations are directly related to variations in the composition of the material. The typical variation

Variable mutual inductance in critical-current measurements

January 1, 2002
Author(s)
Loren F. Goodrich, Theodore C. Stauffer
We have investigated the mutual inductance observed on pairs of voltage tapes that are soldered to superconducting wires in order to measure the voltage-current (V-I) characteristics & determine the critical current. Measurements on a Nb-Ti superconductor

Variation of Electrical Properties With Exfoliation Condition in Nanocomposites

January 1, 2002
Author(s)
M M. McBrearty, Anthony J. Bur, S C. Roth
Dielectric measurements were made on clay filled nylon and polyethylene-ethyl vinyl acetate (PE-EVA) copolymer nanocomposites during processing by extrusion. Nylon without clay had a small dielectric dispersion while PE-EVA did not. The addition of natural

Video Transmission for Multi-Hop Networks Using IEEE 802.11 FHSS

January 1, 2002
Author(s)
K Ban, Hamid Gharavi
In many applications such as construction, manufacturing, ground robotic vehicles, and rescue operations, there are many issues that necessitate the capability of transmitting digital video and that such transmissions should be performed wirelessly and in

Video-Based Metrology

January 1, 2002
Author(s)
Theodore D. Doiron, Marilyn N. Abrams, Tsai Hong Hong, Michael O. Shneier
With the rapid growth of video-based measurement and inspection systems, we would like to determine the extent to which industry needs calibration artifacts and standardized methods for video metrology. We hope to open a dialog among users for discussing

Video-Based Metrology

January 1, 2002
Author(s)
Theodore D. Doiron, John R. Stoup, Marilyn N. Abrams, Tsai Hong Hong
Video cameras are increasingly used to make dimensional measurements. Many of these systems use interpolation of the pixel data, with some systems claiming to find edges with precision of l/100 of a pixel. We have studied the response of single pixels of a
