Trapping and Cooling of Potassium Isotopes in a Double-Magneto-Optical-Trap Apparatus

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
M Prevedelli, F S. Cataliotti, Eric A. Cornell, J R. Ensher, C Fort, L Ricci, G M. Tino, M Inguscio
We report on teh efficient operation of a double-magneto-optical-trap (MOT) apparatus for potassium isopes. Mechanisms for the cooling and the transfer between the two MOTs are studied. A magnetic quadrupole trap has been loaded from the second MOT

Ultrafast photodetectors with near-unity quantum efficiency

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
G. Ulu, M. Gvkkavas, M. S. {Umlat}nl{umlat}, N. Biyikli, E. {Omlat}zbay, Richard Mirin, David H. Christensen
We designed, fabricated and characterized Al xGa 1-xAs/GaAs p-i-n resonant cavity enhanced (RCE) photodetectors with near-unit quantum efficiency. The peak wavelength is in the 780-830 nm region and post-process adjustable by recessing the top surface

Ultrasonic Measurement of Stress in Pin and Hanger Connections

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
A V. Clark, David T. Gallagher, C S. Hehman, P A. Fuchs, M G. Lozev
Pin and hanger connections are used in bridges to suspend an interior span from the outer spans. The connections can sometimes lock up due to corrosion. If lockup ocurs the stresses in the connection are cycled due to thermal expanison and contraction of

Ultrasonic Measurement of the Dynamic Elastic Moduli of Small Metal Samples

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
John A. Slotwinski, Gerald V. Blessing
Ultrasonic velocity measurements were used to determine the dynamic elastic moduli small metal samples to a 2[sigma] measurement uncertainty of less than one percent. The samples were cylindrical in shape, possessing nominal diameters of 12 mm, and

Ultrasonic Research and Applications in the NIST Manufacturing Engineering Laboratory

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
Gerald V. Blessing, Steven E. Fick, Nelson N. Hsu, John A. Slotwinski, D Xiang
The Ultrasonics Group in the NIST Manufacturing Engineering Laboratory performs research, develops standards, and offers calibration services in support of U.S. industry. Pulsed ultrasonic and acoustic emission techniques are pursued for application to

Ultraviolet Radiometry With Synchrotron Radiation and Cryogenic Radiometer

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
Ping-Shine Shaw, Keith R. Lykke, Thomas R. O'Brian, Arp Uwe, H H. White, Thomas B. Lucatorto, J L. Dehmer, Albert C. Parr, R Gupta
The combination of a cryogenic radiometer and synchrotron radiation enablesdetector scale realization in spectral regions that are otherwise difficult to access. Cryogenic radiometry is the most accurate primary detector-based standard available to date

Upward Flame Spread on Composite Materials

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
Thomas J. Ohlemiller, Thomas G. Cleary
Three existing models of upward flame spread were tested against intermediate-scale experiments on a vinyl-ester/glass composite. Characterization of rate of heat release per unit area, needed as input to the models, was obtained at external radiant fluxes

Using Shared Memory in Real-Time Linux

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
Frederick M. Proctor
Shared memory can be used in place of first-in-first-out queues (FIFOs) for communication between Linux operating system user processes and real-time Kernel modules. Shared memory has some features (e.g., fast access to large data structures, multiple
