A recently developed model of curvature-driven, two-dimensional microstructure evolution is modified to include elastic strain energy at solid-fluid interfaces as an additional driving force for mass transport. Local phase distributions within a digital

Polymer composites are finding increased utilization in infrastructure applications where long-term structural performance is required. An important barrier to the expanded introduction of such materials in this area is the lack of information on long term
The polarization-resolved photoabsorption cross section has been calculated in the vicinity of the 3p--->3d giant dipole resonances of Fe [45-65 eV] and Mn 45-60 eV] using the relativisitic time-dependent local-spin-density approximation. The method

We have extended two-photon Doppler-free spectroscopy to the vacuum ultraviolet spectral region to accurately measure the He 1 1S - 2 1S transition at 120 nm. Our result is 4 984 872 315[48] MHz. This yields a ground state Lamb shift of 41104[48] MHz, in
A description is provided for a molecular dynamics code that simulates the dynamics of long chain molecules tethered to a smooth surface. The operation of the code is discussed from the point of view of the user. The structure of the input files is
This document describes the capacitance calibration service provided by NIST, including measurement procedures and systems used to calibrate capacitance standards of nominal values in the range of 0.001 pF to 1 F, at frequencies up to 10 kHz. Discussed are
An interlaboratory measurement comparison, dealing with geometrical parameters of convex spherically polished optical fiber connector ferrule endfaces, was coordinated by NIST. Most measurements were optical, using interferometric microscopes; a few were
The longitudinal thermal diffusivity of three thin long bars of chemical vapor deposited diamond has been measured by a modification of the one dimensional Angstrom's method that employs photothermal radiometry to detect the thermal profile. The geometry

Dendrimer and dendrigraft solutions, blends, and interpenetrating polymer networks are characterized by small angle neutron and x-ray scattering, reflectivity, and transmission electron microscopy.

Rapid thermal processing (RTP) is a key technology for the cluster tool, single wafer manufacturing approach that is used to produce integrated circuits at lower cost with reduced line widths and thermal budgets. However, various problems associated with

Independent single-wavelength ellipsometric measurements of thermally grown silicon dioxide thin films on silicon substrates and data analyses were compared between two laboratories (NIST and VLSI Standards, Inc.) under a Cooperative Research and

This paper presents a technique for permittivity measurements that can be used for either liquids or solid coaxial samples from near dc to gigahertz frequencies.

Sulfur-K [beta] x-ray emission spectra from carbonyl sulfide (OCS) have been measured with resonant excitation at the sulfur K absorption threshold and compared with results of [Δ]SCF and [Δ]DCI calculations. For excitation to the strong 4[pi] absorption
The National Institute of Standards and Technology, in conjunction with the Measurement Science Conference, conducted an industry-needs workshop on February 4, 1998, on issues with U.S. manufacturing companies, particularly smaller ones, may have in
The collection and analysis of software error, fault, and failure data from many high integrity systems may yield reference data for matching development and assurance methods to characteristics of a specific system. Profiles derived from the data may help

This paper examines the measurement uncertainty of small circular features as a function of the sampling strategy; i.e., the number and distribution of measurement points. Specifically, we examine measuring a circular feature using a three-point sampling
Cement-based materials are usually composites, where the matrix consists of cement paste. Cement paste is a material formed from the hydration reaction of cement, usually a calcium silicate material, with water. The microstructure of cement paste changes

We investigate limits on the thermal-response time of supercondcuting transition-edge microcalorimeters. For operation at 0.1 K, we show that the lower limit on the response time of a superconducting transition-edge microcalorimeter is of order 1 5m due to
