Systematically Controlling Acceptor Fluorination Optimizes Hierarchical Morphology, Vertical Phase Separation, and Efficiency in Non-Fullerene Organic Solar Cells

November 21, 2021
Author(s)
Guoping Li, Xiaohua Zhang, Subhrangsu Mukherjee, Wei Huang, Ding Zheng, Liang-Wen Feng, Yao Chen, Jianglin Wu, Vinod Sangwan, Mark Hersam, Dean DeLongchamp, Junsheng Yu, Antonio Facchetti, Tobin Marks
Non-fullerene acceptor (NFA) end group (EG) functionalization, especially by fluorination, affects not only the energetics but also the morphology of bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) organic solar cell (OSC) active layers, thereby influencing the power conversion

EFFECT OF FLUID PROPERTIES ON CONTACT ANGLES IN THE EAGLE FORD SHALE MEASURED WITH SPONTANEOUS IMBIBITION

November 19, 2021
Author(s)
Joanna McFarlane, Victoria H. DiStefano, Philip R. Bingham, Hassina Z. Bilheux, Michael C. Cheshire, Richard E. Hale, Daniel Hussey, David Jacobson, Lindsay M. Kolbus, Jacob LaManna, Edmund Perfect, Mark Rivers, Louis J. Santodonato, Lawrence M. Anovitz
Models of fluid flow are used to improve the efficiency of oil and gas extraction and to estimate the storage and leakage of carbon dioxide in geologic reservoirs. Therefore, a quantitative understanding of key parameters of rock-fluid interactions, such

Deep Learning Based Link-Level Abstraction for mmWave Communications

November 18, 2021
Author(s)
Jian Wang, Neeraj Varshney, Jiayi Zhang, David W. Griffith, Nada T. Golmie
Link abstraction is an efficient way for predicting link-level performance (e.g., whether the receiver successfully receives packets through communication links). It can be used to support system-level simulation and facilitate link adaption. Nonetheless

Measurement of electric-field noise from interchangeable samples with a trapped-ion sensor

November 18, 2021
Author(s)
Kyle McKay, Dustin Hite, Philip D. Kent, Shlomi S. Kotler, Dietrich Leibfried, Daniel Slichter, Andrew C. Wilson, David P. Pappas
We demonstrate the use of a single trapped ion as a sensor to probe electric-field noise from interchangeable test surfaces. As proof of principle, we measure the magnitude and distance dependence of electric-field noise from two ion-trap-like samples with

Pauli blocking of atom-light scattering

November 18, 2021
Author(s)
Christian Sanner, Lindsay Sonderhouse, Ross Hutson, Lingfeng Yan, William Milner, Jun Ye
Transition rates between coupled states in a quantum system depend on the density of available final states. The radiative decay of an excited atomic state has been suppressed by reducing the density of electromagnetic vacuum modes near the atomic

Using CO2 Monitoring to Manage Ventilation in Buildings

November 18, 2021
Author(s)
Andrew K. Persily
The measurement of indoor carbon dioxide concentrations has been used for many years to assess and control building ventilation rates, as well as to characterize indoor air quality. Over the years these applications of indoor CO2 monitoring have been

A Comparison of Particle Size Distribution and Morphology Data acquired using Lab-based and Commercially Available Techniques: Application to Stainless Steel Powder

November 17, 2021
Author(s)
Justin Whiting, Edward Garboczi, Vipin Tondare, John Henry J. Scott, Alkan Donmez, Shawn P. Moylan
The particle size distribution (PSD) and particlemorphology ofmetal powders undoubtedly affects the quality of parts produced by additivemanufacturing (AM). It is, therefore, crucial to accurately knowthe PSD and morphology of these powders. There exist

Activation of Mechanophores in a Thermoset Matrix by Instrumented Scratch

November 17, 2021
Author(s)
Chelsea S. Davis, Jeremiah Woodcock, Ryan Beams, Mitchell Rencheck, Muzhou Wang, Stephan J. Stranick, Aaron M. Forster, Jeffrey Gilman
Scratches in polymer coatings and barrier layers negatively impact optical properties (haze, light transmission, etc.), initiate routes of degradation or corrosion (moisture permeability), and nucleate delamination of the coating. Detecting scratches in

Chiral Spin Bobbers in Exchange-Coupled Hard-Soft Magnetic Bilayers

November 17, 2021
Author(s)
X. H. Zhang, T. R. Gao, L. Fang, S. Fackler, Julie Borchers, Brian Kirby, Brian B. Maranville, S. E. Lofland, A. T. N'Diaye, E. Arenholz, A. Ullah, J. Cui, R. Skomski, Ichiro Takeuchi
The spin structure of exchange-coupled MnBi:Co-Fe bilayers is investigated by X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD), polarized neutron reflectometry (PNR), and micromagnetic simu-lations. The purpose of the present research is two-fold. First, the

HYBRID MODELING OF MELT POOL GEOMETRY IN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING USING NEURAL NETWORKS

November 17, 2021
Author(s)
Kevontrez Jones, Zhuo Yang, Ho Yeung, Paul Witherell, Yan Lu
Laser powder-bed fusion is an additive manufacturing (AM) process that offers exciting advantages for the fabrication of metallic parts compared to traditional techniques, such as the ability to create complex geometries with less material waste. However

IN-PROCESS DATA FUSION FOR PROCESS MONITORING AND CONTROL OF METAL ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

November 17, 2021
Author(s)
Zhuo Yang, Yan Lu, Simin Li, Jennifer Li, Yande Ndiaye, Hui Yang, Sundar Krishnamurty
To accelerate the adoption of Metal Additive Manufacturing (MAM) for production, an understanding of MAM process-structure-property (PSP) relationships is indispensable for quality control. A multitude of physical phenomena involved in MAM necessitates the

Input/Output Check Bugs Taxonomy: Injection Errors in Spotlight

November 17, 2021
Author(s)
Irena Bojanova, Carlos Eduardo Cardoso Galhardo, Sara Moshtari
In this work, we present an orthogonal classification of input/output check bugs, allowing precise structured descriptions of related software vulnerabilities. We utilize the Bugs Framework (BF) approach to define two language-independent classes that

Modeling of Combustion of Fluorine-Containing Refrigerants

Valeri I. Babushok, Donald R. Burgess Jr., Dennis Kim, Michael Hegetschweiler, Gregory T. Linteris
A gas-phase chemical kinetic model for the combustion of C1-C3 fluorine-containing refrigerants is presented, including a list of relevant species, their thermodynamic and transport properties, and the Arrhenius parameters for their reactions. Also

Unified Parameterization and Calibration of Serial, Parallel, and Hybrid Manipulators
