NIST Gold Nanoparticle Reference Materials Do Not Induce Oxidative DNA Damage

February 1, 2013
Author(s)
Bryant C. Nelson, Donald H. Atha, John T. Elliott, Bryce J. Marquis, Elijah J. Petersen, Danielle Cleveland, Stephanie S. Watson, I-Hsiang Tseng, Andrew Dillon, Melissa Theodore, Joany Jackman
Well-characterized, nanoparticle reference materials are urgently needed for nanomaterial toxicity studies. The National Institute of Standards and Technology has developed three gold nanoparticle (AuNP) reference materials (10 nm, 30 nm, 60 nm) to address

ELECTRICAL AND PHYSICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF BILAYER CARBOXYLIC ACID FUNCTIONALIZED MOLECULAR LAYERS

January 30, 2013
Author(s)
Sujitra J. Pookpanratana, Joseph W. Robertson, Cherno Jaye, Daniel A. Fischer, Curt A. Richter, Christina A. Hacker
We have used Flip Chip Lamination (FCL) to form monolayer and bilayer molecular junctions of carboxylic acid-containing molecules with Cu atom incorporation. Carboxylic acid-terminated monolayers are self-assembled onto ultrasmooth Au using thiol chemistry

TSV REVEAL HEIGHT AND BUMP DIMENSION METROLOGY BY THE TSOM METHOD: FROM NANOMETER TO MICROMETER SCALE

January 23, 2013
Author(s)
Ravikiran Attota, Victor Vertanian, Steve Olson, Robert Edgeworth, Iqbal Ali, Craig Huffman, Pate Moschak, Harry Lazier, Elizabeth Lorenzini
The exceptional z-height resolution of TSOM, as well as very fast measurement time, is particularly important for high volume manufacturing. These two attributes make TSOM advantageous for 3D-stacked IC measurements of TSV reveal structures, and C4 bumps

Chirality-controlled cloning of carbon nanotubes

November 13, 2012
Author(s)
Ming Zheng, Xiaomin X. Tu, Jia Liu, Chuan Wang, Chongwu Zhou
Carbon nanotubes possess superior electrical and optical properties and hold great promise for electronic and biomedical applications1-10. The electronic properties of carbon nanotubes strongly depend on their chirality, with 1/3 being metallic1, 2/3 being

Nanoscale Reference Materials for Environmental, Health, and Safety Measurements: Needs, Gaps, and Opportunities

November 7, 2012
Author(s)
Aleksandr B. Stefaniak, Vincent A. Hackley, Gert Roebben, Kensei Ehara, Steve Hankin, Michael T. Postek, Iseult Lynch, Wei-En Fu, Thomas P. Linsinger, Andreas Th?nemann
There is a need to understand and manage potential risks posed to workers, the public, and the environment from exposure to engineered nanomaterials. In response, several organizations have developed lists of relevant nano-objects and of physico-chemical

Microwave Behavior of polymer bonded Iron oxide nanoparticles

November 1, 2012
Author(s)
Pavel Kabos, A Caprile, Coisson Marco, F Fiorillo, O M. Manu, E. S. Olivetti, M. A. Olariu, Pasquale Massimo, V. A. Scarlatache
Samples composed of a polymer matrix were loaded with different fractions from 0 to 30% of Fe oxide magnetic nanoparticles with an average size ranging from 50 to 25 nm. The permittivity and permeability of the composites were determined upon a very wide

First-principles modeling of gold adsorption on BeO (0001)

October 29, 2012
Author(s)
Shmuel Barzilai, Francesca M. Tavazza, Lyle E. Levine
Gold nanowire chains are considered a good candidate for nanoelectronics devices since they exhibit remarkable structural and electrical properties. For practical engineering devices, -wurtzite BeO may be a useful platform for supporting these nanowires

Temperature-dependent mechanical-resonance frequencies and damping in ensembles of gallium nitride nanowires

October 22, 2012
Author(s)
Kristine A. Bertness, Norman A. Sanford, J. R. Montague, H.S. Park, Victor M. Bright, Charles T. Rogers
We have measured singly clamped cantilever mechanical-resonances in ensembles of as-grown gallium nitridenanowires (GaN NWs), from 12 K to 320 K. Resonance frequencies are approximately linearly dependent on temperature near 300 K with relative shifts of

Aggregation/agglomeration state of carbon nanotubes

October 12, 2012
Author(s)
Vivek M. Prabhu, Toshiya Okazaki, Takeshi Eitoku, Masayoshi Tange, Haruhisa Kato
Evaluation of aggregation and agglomeration of carbon nanotube (CNT) solution has been one of the key issues for applications. Here we introduce a simple method based on depolarized dynamic light scattering (DDLS) performed at multiple scattering angles to
