A Dynamic Uncertainty Protocol for Digital Sensor Networks

November 1, 2021
Author(s)
Michael Gaitan, Richard A. Allen, Jon Geist, Akobuije Chijioke
We propose a concept of the use of dynamic uncertainty to improve the accuracy and robustness of digital sensor networks. The digital smart transducer is integrated with a microcontroller that reads the binary data from the calibrated sensor, performs an

A Semi-Supervised Approach for Automatic Crystal Structure Classification

November 1, 2021
Author(s)
Satvik Lolla, Haotong Liang, A. Gilad Kusne, Ichiro Takeuchi, William D. Ratcliff
The structural solution problem can be a daunting and time consuming task. Especially in the presence of impurity phases, current methods such as indexing become more unstable. In this work, we apply the novel approach of semi-supervised learning towards

A simple imaging solution for chip-scale laser cooling

November 1, 2021
Author(s)
John Kitching, Gabriela Martinez, A, Gregazzi, Paul Griffin, Aidan Arnold, D. P. Burt, Rodolphe Bouldot, Erling Riis, James McGilligan
We demonstrate a simple stacked scheme that enables absorption imaging through a hole in the surface of a grating magneto-optical trap (GMOT) chip, placed immediately below a micro-fabricated vacuum cell. The imaging scheme is capable of overcoming the

Bubble Point Measurements of Mixtures of HFO and HFC Refrigerants

November 1, 2021
Author(s)
Stephanie L. Outcalt, Aaron Rowane
Bubble point pressures of six binary mixtures at two compositions each have been measured utilizing a static method. The performance of the apparatus was characterized from bubble point measurements of R32 + R125 for which 19 literature studies are

Evaluating Measurement Uncertainty for Firearm Barrel and Overall Length Measurements

November 1, 2021
Author(s)
Michael Stocker, Theodore V. Vorburger, Thomas Renegar, Robert Thompson, Mark Williford
In recent years, more forensic laboratories are seeking accreditation to ISO 17020 and 17025. In the field of firearm and toolmark forensics, the barrel length and overall length of a firearm are typical measurements performed in the laboratory to

Generation of perfect vortex beams by dielectric geometric metasurface for visible light

October 31, 2021
Author(s)
Qianwei Zhou, Mingze Liu, Wenqi Zhu, Lu Chen, Yongze Ren, Henri Lezec, Yanqing Lu, Ting Xu, Amit Agrawal
Perfect vortex beam (PVB) is a propagating optical field carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) with a radial intensity profile that is independent of topological charge. PVB can be generated through the Fourier transform of a Bessel-Gaussian beam, which

Annual Report on U.S. Manufacturing Industry Statistics: 2021

October 29, 2021
Author(s)
Douglas Thomas
This report provides a statistical review of the U.S. manufacturing industry. There are three aspects of U.S. manufacturing that are considered: (1) how the U.S. industry compares to other countries, (2) the trends in the domestic industry, and (3) the

Absolute radiation pressure detector using a diamagnetically levitating test mass

October 28, 2021
Author(s)
Anna Vaskuri, Daniel Rahn, Paul A. Williams, John H. Lehman
We have developed an absolute radiometer to measure laser power by means of radiation pressure in a closed control-loop configuration using diamagnetically levitated pyrolytic graphite as the soft spring and gravity as a contactless restoring force. Our
