Non-Resonant Valence-to-Core X-ray Emission Spectroscopy of Niobium

March 23, 2018
Author(s)
Bruce D. Ravel, A. J. Kropf, Dali Yang, Mengen Wang, Mehmet Topsokal, Deyu Lu, M. C. Stennett, N. C. Hyatt
The valence-to-core (V2C) portion of X-ray Emission Spectroscopy (XES) measures the electron 15 states close to the Fermi level. These states are involved in bonding, thus provide a measure of the 16 chemistry of the material. In this manuscript, we show

Wafer-Level Electrically Detected Magnetic Resonance:Magnetic Resonance in a Probing Station

March 20, 2018
Author(s)
Duane J. McCrory, Mark Anders, Jason Ryan, Pragya Shrestha, Kin P. Cheung, Patrick M. Lenahan, Jason Campbell
We report on a novel semiconductor reliability technique that incorporates an electrically detected magnetic resonance (EDMR) spectrometer within a conventional semiconductor wafer probing station. EDMR is an ultrasensitive electron paramagnetic resonance

Versatile silicon-waveguide supercontinuum for coherent mid-infrared spectroscopy

March 6, 2018
Author(s)
Nima Nader, Daniel Maser, Flavio Caldas da Cruz, Abijith S. Kowligy, Henry R. Timmers, Jeffrey T. Chiles, Connor D. Fredrick, Daron A. Westly, Richard P. Mirin, Jeffrey M. Shainline, Scott A. Diddams
Infrared spectroscopy is a powerful tool for basic and applied science. The rich “spectral fingerprints” of compounds in the 3 um - 20 um region provide a means to uniquely identify the molecular structure for applications that include fundamental

Imaging catalytic CO2 reduction on Cu2O (110) -- A First-Principles study

March 5, 2018
Author(s)
Eric L. Shirley, John T. Vinson, Liang Li, Maria K. Chan, Jeffry Greeley, Jeffrey R. Guest, Rui Zhang
Balancing global energy needs against increasing greenhouse gas emissions requires new methods for efficient CO2 reduction. While photoreduction of CO2 is promising, the rational design of photocatalysts hinges on precise characterization of the surface

Two-Dimensional Coherent Spectroscopy of Transition Metal Dichalcogenides

February 28, 2018
Author(s)
Galan Moody
Optical two-dimensional coherent spectroscopy is an extremely useful tool for examining the structure and dynamics of semiconductors. The appeal of the technique is in its ability to resolve both individual-emitter and ensemble-averaged properties of

Semiempirical Configuration Interaction Calculations for RuCentered Dyes

February 18, 2018
Author(s)
Lisa A. Fredin, Thomas C. Allison
Computational investigation of of the photochemical properties of transition-metal-centered dyes typically involves optimization of the molecular structure followed by calculation of the UV/Visible spectrum. At present, these steps are usually carried out

Carbon Nanotube-Based Black Coatings

February 15, 2018
Author(s)
John H. Lehman, Christopher S. Yung, Nathan A. Tomlin, Davis R. Conklin, Michelle S. Stephens
It has been shown that coatings comprised of carbon nanotubes are very black; that is, characterized by low reflectance over a broad wavelength range from the visible to far infrared. Arguably there is no other material that is comparable. This is

Vanadium Transitions in the Spectrum of Arcturus

February 1, 2018
Author(s)
Michael P. Wood, Chris Sneden, James E. Lawler, E. A. Den Hartog, John J. Cowan, Gillian Nave
We derive a new abundance for vanadium in the bright, mildly metal-poor red giant Arcturus. This star has an excellent high-resolution spectral atlas and well-understood atmospheric parameters, and it displays a rich set of neutral vanadium lines that are

Low-temperature thermal reduction of graphene oxide: In situ correlative structural, thermal desorption and electrical transport measurements

January 30, 2018
Author(s)
Alexey Lipatov, Maxime Guinel, Dmitry S. Muratov, Vladislav O. Vanyushin, Peter Wilson, Andrei Kolmakov, Alexander Sinitskii
Elucidation of the structural transformations in graphene oxide (GO) upon reduction remains an active and important area of research. We report the results of in situ heating experiments, during which electrical, mass spectrometry, X-ray photoelectron

Correction of an adding-doubling inversion algorithm for the measurement of the optical parameters of turbid media

January 1, 2018
Author(s)
Paul Lemaillet, Catherine C. Cooksey, Jeeseong Hwang, Heidrun Wabnitz, Dirk Grosenick, Lin Yang, David W. Allen
We present broadband measurements of the optical properties of tissue-mimicking solid phantoms using a single integrating sphere to measure the hemispherical reflectance and transmittance under a direct illumination at the normal incident angle. These
